1. Personalized monogram (h/t The Suburban Mom)
Monograms are such a great way to decorate your home, especially if they're made out of something you love! A wine cork monogram is a great idea, and I also think this would make such a perfect wedding gift!
2. Jewelry holder (h/t Here Comes The Sun)
Looking for a unique way to display your jewelry? You can't get much more unique than a cork board made out of wine corks! The knobs on the bottom of the frame are an especially nice touch.
3. Tiny magnet planters (ht/ It All Started With Paint)
Wine corks, magnets, and tiny succulents... could there be a better combination? I can't think of one! This is such an eco-friendly (and inexpensive) way to display your favorite little succulents!
4. Easy candle holder (h/t Two Twenty One)
It's definitely candle season in my home right now, and I'm always looking for cute new ways to display my favorite candles. I absolutely love these wine cork votive holders – they're so easy to make, and they look so cozy!
5. Cork board (h/t A Beautiful Mess)
This awesome project brings a whole new meaning to the idea of a "cork board"! You'll need to save quite a few corks to make a board as big as this one, but I think the results would be well worth the effort.
6. Embellished napkin rings (h/t Socks And Mittens)
Wine is usually an important part of a good dinner party, so why not set the tone with these fantastic wine cork napkin rings? This is a great way to show off some of the prettier wine corks you've been saving!
7. Bath mat (h/t Crafty Nest)
This is another project that requires you to save up quite a few corks, but it's definitely a conversation piece! Not all corks handle the water well, so you should look into sealing your mat properly if you want it to last.
8. Drawer knobs (h/t Dollar Store Crafts)
These are so much more fun than regular drawer knobs, especially if you chose corks from your favorite bottles of wine! I think I want to put these on the door of the cupboard where I keep my wine glasses – it would make me smile every time I saw it!
9. Wine glass coaster (h/t Pink When)
Is there any better place to put your wine glass than on a coaster made of old wine corks? I don't think so! This would also make a great hostess gift, along with a bottle of wine!
10. Kitchen backsplash (h/t Create Craft Love)
I've always loved cork backsplashes, but I never thought of making one out of wine corks. This is definitely a big project, but it would add such a unique touch to your kitchen!
11. Canape knives (h/t Yarni Gras)
What goes together better than wine and cheese? Wine and cheese served with these cute little wine cork canape knives! I want to do this with some of my favorite corks – they would be so fun to bring out when guests come over!
12. Chandelier (h/t Mox And Fodder)
When I think of chandeliers, I think of sparkly gems... but this wine cork version is a wonderful, rustic surprise! I can only imagine how pretty this would look with the light coming through it.
13. Wine cork vases (h/t Design Improvised)
Would you have ever thought that you could make a vase out of wine corks and hot glue? Of course, you'd need to put a glass or plastic container inside if you wanted it to hold water, but it could be used for decorative arrangements just as it is.
14. DIY stamps (h/t The Sweet Spot)
The wine cork stamps are sweet but simple, and they're so easy to make! They're also basically free to make, and they'd be a great little addition to a party favor or gift bag.
