Synthetic Wine Cork Coaster Tutorial
At a recent friend's wedding we decided to confiscate all the wine corks from the bar.
When we got back home I started searching for a fun gift to make our Newlyweds.
Since our corks lacked any cool printing on the side, our project choice was limited.
I found images online of hot pads made from synthetic wine corks. But, if you needed heat to make them, why would you use heat on them afterwards? Dweeee.
We chose to make them smaller and call them drink coasters.
Our friends did tell us that they loved the coasters, and thought it was cool that they were made from their wedding reception corks.
It has been over a year, and I still use my prototype daily to hold my morning coffee cup.
I won't list step by step instructions since a picture speaks a thousand words. And video just catches every move.
Enjoy.

A FEW CHICKS IN A BARN
It's so exciting to be able to share this great news with all of you lovers of antiques, primitives, collectibles, crafts, food, and fun loving folks. We have been invited to become part of The Country Loft's special holiday events
During fair weather events we have even more antiques and primitives outdoors.
We have a neighboring homestead with plenty of outbuildings full of antiques, collectibles and crafts. Before you visit our neighbors, be sure to fill up an a healthy meal at The Loft. Plenty of home-made pies are available with the daily meal specials.
On the 4th of July, we'll be just a heartbeat away from the Historical Seward Nebraska July 4th Celebrations.

The Loft is a 100 year old barn that has been beautifully renovated.
If you dream of restoring your old barn, you'll love how they have decorated The Loft with family heirlooms. 
My creative juices have been flowing and at each upcoming event, I will be revealing a new collection of jewelry at the Country Loft.
