Cork Toppers Craft

Wine Bottle Cork Toppers

Have some wine bottle corks lying around? How about some small forgotten toys? Repurpose these materials to make awesome wine bottle toppers! Ok, so this idea is more for the adults, it combines a little bit of the kid's crafting world with that oh so popular grape drink I know you all like to indulge in! As a teacher I end up with many little trinkets left over, or some extra I haven't handed out yet, I'm sure your home is overflowing with this kinda "junk" too. I think it's always fun to repurpose or recycle these things before deciding to throw them away!

Here I've transformed some small Frozen figurines into these super cool, modern and trendy wine bottle cork toppers!

So this is a very simple craft you really don't even need a materials list or directions. All you need is wine corks, small toys and some spray paint. I bought these clear wine bottles from the craft store but you can use one you already own, plus I thought they'd look nice with string lights inside.

So first you'll want to wash the toys with dish soap of course, the paint will adhere better. Then hot glue the toys to the cork and spray paint them, let them dry well for at least a day before you use them.

I think these will make pretty cool gifts or maybe even favors. These Frozen toys are from the Dollar Tree, and now they sell or sorts of characters like Disney villains, Ninja Turtles and DC heroes. How about a super cool black spray painted Batman wine cork topper? That be cool!

The string lights are the battery operated kind with bendable wire, they're made for jars and wreathes. Below is a quick video to show you how I made 'em.
