Materials
- 12" straw or foam wreath
- Large glue gun and glue sticks
- Wine Corks or Hobby Corks (about 150-200)
- Twine or floral wire
Create Your DIY Wine Cork Wreath
- Tie your twine or floral wire around the wreath, leaving enough slack for three fingers to fit through.
- Place a line of glue on the side of the cork that you will be glueing to the wreath.
- Cover the front-facing side of the wreath with corks laying side by side.
- Once the first layer of corks is on, place glue on corks to be added to a second layer. The glueing will need to be more creative than the straight line used for the first layer.
- Stagger the second layer of corks at random angles all around the front of the wreath.
- Decorate your wreath with seasonal adornments such as holiday ribbons, silk flowers or leaves, or batter operated twinkle lights
- Hang your wreath from the twine or floral wire you placed around the wreath.
