Champagne Taste

Years ago I came across some really

 cool ideas re-using wine corks! 

Of all the items I've created 

with wine corks over the years,

my favorite is to combine used wine corks with 

broken/mismatched vintage jewelry pieces 

and turn them into unique and fun necklaces.

Here's a couple of my most recent ones...

And, if there's a most favorite of favorites...this one is it! 

I got this beautiful vintage embellished lace dress inset

as a gift years ago. For a long time, I tried to come up

with the perfect way to show it off.

 I think I finally accomplished it!

I not only create items with wine corks - I also use 

champagne corks to make unique and useful 

items. I started out making sparkly holiday 

ornaments using cut glass prisms from 

antique crystal chandeliers.

I recently acquired a big bag of 

champagne corks and wanted to come up

 with other creative ideas.

What goes better with champagne 

than hors d'oeuvres and cheese spreads -

and what better way to use a

champagne cork handle spreader!

CHEERS!

Spring has arrived - Let's Celebrate!
