Use up those wine corks folks Why make your own – By Chica and Jo When some friends of mine moved recently, they were eager to get rid of as much as they could to avoid having to pack it and move it. They had a giant bag full of corks they had saved, and asked me if I wanted them. I was eager to add them to my own cork collection and vowed to actually use them for a project. As luck would have it, I set them on a shelf next to a plain old wooden basket and inspiration struck. I could cover that boring basket with corks and make a charming and creative new picnic basket!
