Upcycled Wine Cork Trivet
 
  Dear readers, this blog will no longer be updated.    All contents will be moved to:         upcycleliving.blogspot.com     Please update your link, and we hope to see you again soon  😊       Until we started buying screw top wine, I had been painstakingly saving up all the wine corks: cleaning, drying and storing. Thanks to my inexplainable sentiment towards the little brown thing and the thought that one day I would be able to use them for something, I've filled up a whole large shoe box. And they had been in there for 7 long years!      Just when I was about to give up and decide to clean them out, I caught a glimpse of a trivet made of wine corks in the background of a TV show. Obviously this is not an original idea and surely there must be others who've already done so, but hey I managed to use up all the corks and turned them into something useful - that's good enough for me.   Most importantly: I get to keep them, not bin them ;)
