I love all thing monogrammed and combined that with my love of wine. With so many B’s in our name (Brent & Brittany Beaver…or future Mrs. Beaver
) it’s easy to love monograms. This is a simple, quick project and looks perfect in this little alcove in our living room.All you need for this project is a hot glue gun, wine corks, and I picked up this wooden letter from a local craft store for a few bucks. I save all my corks in this “vino” wall hanger, which was starting to spill over, so it was definitely time for a project so I can make room for more.
I found it easiest to glue each cork down as I went versus setting all the corks up first because they kept falling over. Place a small dot of hot glue on the bottom and a line down the side to glue to the cork next to it. I think it is nice to alternate the colors of the cork from the whites and reds.
This is a special project for me because the monogram contains champagne corks from our engagement and special bottles of wine shared by friends and family. I carefully placed the corks so that the names of the wine/vineyard show on the outside as much as possible.
Just play with the sizes and shapes of the corks to make it fit into whatever letter is special to you!! I love how it turned out and think this would make a great housewarming gift for a friend!
Have a good week and enjoy a glass of wine…for craft projects of course!!
