Happy Day Two of the fabulous Christmas Spectacular.  How about a super simple craft that takes less than 10 minutes — and you most likely have the supplies already on hand!?!  Sounds pretty appealing, right?  Well, these Simple Wine Cork Trees are the perfect holiday craft for kids of all ages and they have great versatility!  Whether it’s for a holiday diner favor or a sweet addition to your holiday decor — these cute DIY trees are easy to whip up!

Simple Wine Cork Trees!  Perfectly rustic feel for dinner favors or a sweet edition to you holiday decor. Tutorial at www.livelaughrowe.comSupplies for DIY Wine Cork Trees:
Corks
Craft Glue (Optional)
Pine Branches from Garland (or real tree branches)
Wire Cutters or Sharp Knife for branches
Drill (or something to make small holes)

Simple Wine Cork TreesCut strands of greenery off of garland or branch.  I always have extra greenery lying around for decorating and crafting, so I snipped a few ends off of a strand of garland I had on hand.

Prepare the corks.  You can use the corks as is, or if you want them a little shorter or varying in height, cut the corks in half with a sharp knife.  If there isn’t a hole in the corks from the cork screw used in removing it from the bottle, use a drill or screw to make a small hole for the greenery.

Once your stems are cut and your corks are ready, you’re ready to assemble the small cork trees.  Use a dot of glue to keep the stem in place (optional).  That’s it!

Assembling the Simple Wine Cork Trees!  www.livelaughrowe.comIf the tree doesn’t have the shape you were hoping for, use your scissors to shape it a bit more!  Haha!  Funny to think about about shaping a miniature cork tree, huh?

Regardless, they are so sweet — and versatile!  Use as a dinner favor during your holiday entertaining…

    Such a genius idea, Kelly! I just passed up some wine corks at a vintage shop over the weekend and now I wish that I hadn’t.

    I’ve meant to send you off an email, too, but haven’t gotten around to it. But THANK YOU so much for the postcard from your trip. It felt so special to receive mail from Italy. Hope you enjoyed your time there. Merry Christmas!
