Wine Cork Coasters


I have a lot of painted furniture and therefore am obsessed with coasters so the finish doesn't get ruined.  I have been wanting to craft some coasters of my own but couldn't find an idea that i really liked and wanted to recreate until i found this one.  It involves wine corks and I happen to have a ton.  I have been saving them from our Girls Nights and have some friends from a local bar who gave me an entire Crown Royal bag full of corks from the bar.  Here is the How To...
SUPPLIES:
  • Corks
  • Hot Glue
  • Strong Scissors
  • Ribbon
DIRECTIONS:

1) Take your wine corks and cut them in fourths. It takes alot of muscle and strong scissors but it can be done!

2) Glue the pieces together with the hot glue gun side by side to form a circle.

3) Let it dry and glue a ribbon around the outside (if you don't want to it does look cool with the sides of the wine corks showing so you can skip this step if you like it as is!)

YOU'RE DONE!


Here is how they should look....
