I need 2,000 Corks

Indifferent

DH and I built a bar for this nook in our dinning area, it's pretty awesome, looks nice and modern.

DH got the idea this weekend that he wants to line the shelves with wine corks, which will look awesome (I have a pretty creative DH!).

I lined up all the corks we already have to figure out how many more we need.... 2,000 if we want to do all 3 shelves!

DH says we'll have to just start with one shelf at 700 more corks Stick out tongue

So who wants to start drinking? BeerDrinks LOL.

    No! lol. The island is going strong (and looking fabulous in it's natural wood tone too!) 

    The bar is yet another project, Not sure if you remember but we were going to build a ladder shelf like this one...

    image 

    But modified to hand our stemware too...

    Well while building it i got frustrated because nothing was coming out right so we scrapped it and built a 3 shelf parsons style bookcase-ish thing instead, we're hanging 2 floating shelves from Ikea over it for the stemware.

    DH is going to paint it tonight so hopefully I'll get some pictures up on the blog. It's really turning out great!  

  • I'll have to look around, H always saves them for whatever reason.  I'd gladly start drinking - but I've got 6 more weeks of being pregnant and then a good 9-12 months of breastfeeding, so I wouldn't be able to put a dent in the 2000 you need. Big Smile

    Hey I forgot about those, they never did make it to my house. But yeah if you want to send them my way that would be fabulous! 

    They didn't??

  • To bad you dont need bud light caps. My dad has buckets full of them.
  • I am so not surprised the link got DD'd.

    HAHAHA!!

  • H drinks lots of wine, I'll start a collection for you:) I am assuming you want real cork only? Not fancy corks? Or does that not matter?

    Yeah, but not enough to put a dent in the 2,000 she needs!!  Unless I plan on doing a lot of pump and dump! LOL

  • I have a TON of corks, but I'm up in gainesville, I had a friend who was making wine cork lamps (filled the bases of her clear lamp with corks) and she was able to get them done quickly by going around to restaurants and asking the bartenders to save the corks for her. HTH!
