You can use everything and even a little more in the interior. Designers, Hand-Made masters, needlewomen and simply people with rich imagination and an original view of the world create beautiful and functional things from a variety of materials.
What some people decide on can then become a real fashion statement or just another great idea for others. Such original idea steel wine corks in the interior, which are used for decoration and decoration of almost any thing. How to build and decorative material plugs for wine bottles in the interior they are functional and versatile, but the main advantage is their naturalness.
So now these previously useless trinkets need not be thrown away, but saved, collected, asked from friends, in order to then create something completely special and a unique masterpiece. The most basic ideas on how to use wine corks in the interior will be discussed below, although only a small part of what can be made from this easy-to-use material obtained from a wonderful pastime is collected here.
One interesting way to use wine bottle stoppers in the interior is to create pieces of furniture or decorate them. The only thing that can cause difficulty is the huge amount of material required for the products. It's quite easy to create armchairs, ottomans, tables or chests by connecting corks together. Models of chairs, like other pieces of furniture, can be completely different: with an external or internal base for stability, or without a base at all. Since traffic jams are relative soft material, they will be deformed under the pressure of the human body, and therefore the contours of the furniture when used will become soft, smooth and comfortable for comfortable rest.
Also, wine corks in the interior can be used to make furniture sets intended also for the garden, as well as to create rocking chairs, especially loved by many homebodies.
Dining tables or small coffee tables It is unlikely that it will be possible to fully implement wine corks, after all, their legs should be made of more durable material, but the tabletop may well be either made of them or decorated with them. The same applies to the surfaces of chests of drawers, shelving, small shelves and other cabinet furniture.
Use as a finishing material
Another option for using wine bottle corks in the interior is to use them as finishing material. Wallpaper, plywood, boards, plastic panels and other popular materials can become a thing of the past if they are replaced with such an original natural coating. Naturally, wine corks in the interior for surface finishing are used on some ready-made solid foundation, but this will allow you to decorate and diversify your home simply and tastefully.
Wine corks can be used to decorate entire walls or just parts of them, for example, kitchen apron or a niche in the wall, and you can simply glue them to the surface, or you can create with their help volumetric images. Even simple patterns made from corks, for example, placing them diagonally or alternating horizontal and vertical stripes will create interesting surface.
Another interesting option using corks for wine bottles in the interior is the design of the stairs. It’s funny if the staircase to a wine cellar is decorated in this way, but if there isn’t one, any other staircase can be decorated with the same soundproofing material.
Plinths made from corks, surfaces of window sills, as well as podiums or part of the floor decorated with them, for example, in a hallway, are original. This kind of threshold-mat made from wine corks can be easily kept clean.
Functional elements in the interior
For the creation of some things, such materials are so indispensable that it seems incomprehensible why no one had thought of this before. For example, a bath mat made from wine corks is a very original and functional solution, since this material is practically indifferent to water. Coming out of a bath or shower with such a coating is very pleasant and comfortable, but it is advisable to secure it well to the floor or use a non-slip base for your own safety. A bedside rug made from wine corks can also be made from this natural material, and for small children you can make a playpen out of them.
Coasters made from corks will please more than one housewife, because they don’t require too much material to create, and they can also be cut. Making a tray using such leftovers from wine bottles is also quite easy, and it can be of different shapes, because the corks can be easily cut if desired.
Thread curtains made from corks look interesting, as well as lampshades for a lamp or chandelier. This material is very easy to connect or string on a thread, and it will protect from the sun or separate zones in the room no worse than purchased products.
Decorating various things
Most often, people make crafts from wine corks with their own hands, decorating certain things. These could be photo frames, flower pots or vases, clocks, candlesticks, lamps, boxes or baskets. It is interesting that such decor of the most ordinary things is suitable for almost any interior style, with the possible exception of classics, although even there, with proper processing, you can find a place for it. In order to make crafts from wine corks, you can additionally use paint, colored paper, natural material, rhinestones, threads and other components.
When decorating any thing, only the author’s imagination is always important, but you also need to take into account that the interior looks harmonious, i.e. various details and little things did not fall out of the overall picture. But, for example, for eco-style, where natural materials, a large number of traffic jams in the interior will not hurt.
Decorative panels
Other DIY crafts made from wine corks can be classified as paintings or decorative panels. Such paintings can also act as a functional element if, for example, they are used as a writing board. It is easy to attach various needles or nails to the corks, and therefore they can also act as a place to store all sorts of small things - from earrings and rings to small tools or keys.
As a gift with your own hands, you can decorate a panel letter or an entire inscription in a frame, which will be appropriate for front door or above the crib of a newborn baby. Several small ones look interesting similar products on the same wall, if you choose the same frames for them.
Do you usually throw away wine corks or collect them? If you do throw it away, you will regret it now.
They will be useful for various crafts. To get inspired to do something like this, look at the photo of what you can create with your own hands from large quantity traffic jams
For example, completely cover the wall in the kitchen with them, as in this photo:
If you don’t have that much material, let’s do something simpler. For example, a photo frame.
A watch decorated with handmade bottle caps will be a wonderful souvenir for friends and family.
Now let's get down to business. First we have to start making decorative balls and a cup stand.
Lesson 1. Decorative balls
To make these cute balls, prepare:
- Wine corks (the bigger the better, because it’s very difficult to stop!)
- Balls made of polystyrene foam (you can find something suitable among the New Year's Christmas balls)
- Dye brown tint, such as acrylic or gouache
- Glue "Moment" or similar (PVA or silicate will not work)
So, let's get to work.
Step 1. Paint the balls with light or dark brown paint and let them dry thoroughly. We do this in order to White color did not show through.
If your ball is dark in color, there is no need to recolor it. You can paint the balls in the evening, and then they will have the whole night to dry.
Hang them like in the photo and they will dry evenly.
Step 2. Now let's start gluing the wine corks. It is best to glue wine corks to polystyrene foam using a special gun.
But if you don’t have it, don’t be upset - you can glue it with “Moment”. We start work along the “equator” of the ball (as in the photo), and then fill both halves of it.
You will have to take breaks so that the glue sets well. Some plugs may need to be tapered slightly to fit into a narrow space.
Now let’s thoroughly dry our crafts and think about additional decor. For example, we will tint the ends of the corks with bright paint, as in our photo.
That's all, all that remains is to find appropriate place in the interior of our kitchen.
What if there are not enough wine corks? Find at least 6 pieces, and you can make a nice stand for cups and give it, for example, to your beloved friend: the gift is especially valuable if it is made by yourself. So, let's begin.
Lesson 2. Coasters - coasters for glasses.
- Wine corks (1 coaster will take about 6 corks)
- Cork sheet
- A cutting board or something that you can safely cut on without worrying about the countertop.
- Rough sandpaper
Stages of work (photo will help you do everything correctly):
- Cut the corks in half lengthwise. Try to cut exactly in the center, otherwise the surface of the stand will be uneven.
- We cut out the base from a sheet of cork; it can be round or square, according to your taste.
- Glue the cork halves to the base.
- Carefully cut off all protruding pieces along the contour of the base.
- Using sandpaper, carefully rub the edges.
- We admire the result!
The photo below shows other options for making stands:
And one more simple, but painstaking version of the craft.
Lesson h. Panel.
If you have old posters that are already tired, you can make a panel out of them. Like this:
- For this craft, you need to select posters with a high frame and take out a photo from them.
2. Paint the frame backing in a dark (in our case, black) color.
3.Now we lay the plugs. This is not a quick task, they need to be selected according to size.
4. Now you can start carefully gluing. This can be done with a pistol, but a regular “Moment” will do.
Ready! Now you can hang the panel on the wall or give a gift to a friend!

By changing the height of the corks and their number, create new masterpieces.
Framework
Boring frames for photographs and paintings can be enlivened using the same corks.
