French Wine Charms - Made from Cork - Tutorial

A winery was selling cork wine charms. 

I had all the supplies on hand to make my own.

To make the wine charms you will need:

non-tapered # 9 corks

earring hoops

jump rings 

wood and silver beads

StazOn inkpad

And French Stamps!
To cut the corks I used a bandsaw. You could use a hacksaw. Then I used a belt sander to smooth the corks. A hand sander would work just as good. Drill a hole in the cork with a small drill bit. Stamp your corks with your French stamps. Put the jump rings in each cork hole. Add the wood and silver beads to your earring hoops and assemble all the parts together. Now they are ready for your wine glasses. 

French "grenouille" all in fun! The frog stamp does not come with the set.

My uncle Jacques calls himself a French Frog.

While I was at the winery they had these red bottles.

It makes the wine stopper look extra special.
I did a post on how to make them. It's on my sidebar.

I adore the color 'RED' in the winter months!

You can buy the French stamps on my sidebar.

Happy Crafting!

Dee
