HOW MUCH WINE DID YOU DRINK?

Hi Everyone

Happy Thursday!

I hope you have had a good day.

So the question is .. .. how much wine did you drink over Christmas and New Year?

Would it have been enough to make one of these using an old picture frame stuck to a piece of hardboard?


a pin board made and decorated with wine bottle corks .. .. .. 
not all supplied by me I hasten to add .. ..hic!!!  LOL!!!

Not the easiest thing for me to photograph . . . the magazine did a much better job


This is a project I worked on for the current issue of Papercraft Inspirations Magazine 
which is now on the shelves 


and as much as I enjoyed the project my favourite part was actually creating the embellishments .. .. particularly this one:


So that is me for today .. .. catch you again when I do.

    Brilliant creation, I would like to make one of these for my niece and nephew but a lot of bottles these days come with screw tops. I got 6 bottles of wine for Christmas, not drunk them all yet.

    I am afraid I only had one spritzer Christmas day and the same for New Years Eve. That is the only time I drink alcohol. So I don't think I would be of any use!! Hugs, Carol S.xx

    Hello Jules! It's a beautiful project, I never saw recycle corks with so much art, really amazing! The ornaments with which you decorated the frame left you adorable, you can be very proud of your wonderful work! Of cover of magazine!
    I wish you a Happy 2019, may all your wishes be fulfilled!
    A kiss

    A super project Jules, a great way to use up all of your corks - it would probably take a bit longer than over Christmas for me to collect that many, I'm sure you had lots of help!

    Such a beautiful creation, I especially love the cute embellishments ! But I guess, it takes a lot of time, to fit/glue all those corks. Next week I go to Antwerp, and get the magazine, so I can admire your work again ! All the best! Enny

    The Playground is all abuzz with news of your feature in the magazine, Jules, so I had to come by and check it out! I'm so glad I did! What an fun and festive idea for a pinboard! Your corner embellies are the best part of the design! Hugs, Darnell
