P52 Week 21 - Favorites


I love wine... It's my favorite adult beverage, and my favorite way to wind down from a stressful day (or like this week, a few stressful days...) I started collecting corks from wine bottles several years ago. I didn't know why, or what I  would do with them, but slowly my collection grew. As it did, people started to give me things to do with my corks.
The first thing was a "cork board" set where you supply the corks. My sister gave me this for Christmas a few years ago. It's too pretty to actually hang anything on, but I have it hanging in my dining room (which has a wine theme, of course) and people love to ask "Did you drink all those?" And the answer is yes, with a little help from my husband, but not much.

 Then, a few years later my MIL bought me this really neat wine bottle shaped holder, specifically for corks. I love this thing! I only wish it was bigger (or that I had more of them).


Now I need to start thinking of some new things to do with corks...
