I was invited to a wine cork wreath
making party while visiting Texas.
It was at Aleecia's house, a good
friend of my daughter Kim.
Aleecia had a trunk-full of wine corks!
Styrofoam wreath forms were painted
and ready for us.
Time to pick a pattern.
Lots of glue guns were used.
I decided on a random pattern.
Kim decided on an in-line pattern.
I glued on lots of corks.
Wine and snacks
Kim's wreath
My wreath.
This wine-themed ribbon
is just right thru Thanksgiving, then I
will use a Christmas ribbon for December.
We also made coasters.
Six for me, six for Kim.
We also made Christmas trees.
I will add a small screw eye to the top and
a ribbon to hang from the tree.
This is Aleecia's tree with a
wine cork garland.
She sent me home with a box filled
with corks so that I can make my own.
That's my project for today.
Cheers!
Oh my word, what a fun idea for a party and the wreaths are all so pretty.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas.....though I don't drink wine! I loved the wreaths and the wine cork garland on the Christmas tree! Thanks for sharing - hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!

I love this. I have a cork wreath that a friend made for me several years ago that I just love. What a fun party. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHow fun I would love to do a party making wreaths wherever did she get that many corks?Susie
ReplyDeleteWe all had so much fun, even the puppies!
ReplyDeleteI am saving your post for some ideas for next year. I have a ton, being an incurable wino, and I have done a couple of projects with them although not holiday related. Thanks for sharing.
