DIY Cork Strip

This Cork Strip is so useful for coupons, reminders, and lists. It could also be used for jewelry.

Things You'll Need:
  • Wine cork stoppers 
  • Hot glue
  • Fabric ribbon
Estimated Time To Make: one hour


Step 1. Start by arranging the cork stopper in an order you like.

Step 2. Glue two cork stoppers together.
 

 Step 3. Keep gluing more and more cork stoppers together.

Step 4. Measure fabric ribbon the size of your cork strip.

 Step 5. Apply glue to ribbon.

Step 6.Press the ribbon onto the cork strip (this adds reinforcement).

 Step 7. To hang the cork strip, I took some embroidery thread, and looped it. Then stapled it to the back.(Be sure to make X's with the staples so thread doesn't slip out)
