Have You Ever?!

Ya'll.  I swear I have the most creative family.  My Aunt Karen has been saving up wine bottle corks and finally debuted this beauty to us:


Have you ever?!

It took her lots of hours and even more glasses of vino (okay, she had a little help from us on the supply!) but I'd say it was well worth it.

If you'd like for me to put you in contact with her to see about having a wreath made for your own home, drop me a line at alizadventures@ymail.com.

PS - Have you entered my Preppy Cards giveaway yet for a lovely trio of customized items?  The deadline is Thursday at midnight with a winner announced this Friday!

    This is so funny - I was just thinking last week that I needed to start brainstorming a new cork project. I save all of mine too and have made a few things in the past but nothing like Aunt Karen's beautiful wreath! All the more reason to drink up!

    My Mom made one like that for me years ago and I loved it but then got tired of it and sold it on EBay. Kind of regret it.

    LOVE! We've got a big glass container full of corks that we might need to repurpose!

    I have something like this on Pinterest... it's like a wine cork heart.... SUCH a great look! I can imagine this with some paint or spray snow or maybe even some shimmer/glitter.

    This is awesome! Stephen and I are getting married at Childress Vineyards, and I have been thinking about saving all the corks from the bottles of wine served at the wedding. This would be a perfect way to use them and remember our day!

    I love this wreath! Your aunt has done an amazing job! I have been thinking lately about what to do with all my wine corks since I hate throwing them away. Great idea!!

    AAHH! I've been wanting to do this! Your aunt stole my idea! :)
    May be I'll just have her make it. I can't seem to drink wine fast enough!
