Monday Musings: Cork Art or Smiles and Laughter!!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Napa Consultants DRE00893924

 

We were drawn to this form of art (popular in all wine producing areas of our country) demonstrating one way to recycle corks is creating art work with these.  This photo is an example of cork art.   The cleverness of it is admirable, and made us smile.

 

"The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter"  

Mark Twain

 

Wishing you all a great week!

Alexandra-That is a pretty creative way to use used corks. They look thinner than corks for wine bottles but it may be just the way they are sitting.

That could be quite the party if all the corks were pulled in one night. Also a very nice job by someone.

Hi Ron & Alexandra - That's cool. Finally, a reason to justify keeping all those wine corks. Have a great week!

That's a really cool way to reduce reuse recycle those corks. The artist did a beautiful job.

It is amazing what creative art can be made possible by those with the ability to have their minds go where mine does not.

My friend saves all her corks and plans to create some art with them. Have a good week, Ron and Alexandra.

I love cork art and cork bulletin boards. Too bad a lot of corks these days are plastic or a composite.

Cork art is new to me... but it's quite the idea, Alexandra. That's one way to support recycling!

Hi Ron & Alexandra -  I could probably make a lot of stuff with the amount of corks we've had over the years!

Hope those corks all represent some good wine. Haha. We both appreciate the practice of reusing and recycling - creating a piece of art out of corks to represent a wine theme is quite clever.
