wine cork crafts for kids
These wine cork craft ideas not only give the stoppers you have lying around a
new lease on life, but they’ll also keep kids busy and bolster their creativity.
mini cork planters
Stick them on the fridge or any metal surface
to add a little green to any room in your home
that needs it. You’ll just need wine corks, soil,
succulents, a glue gun, magnets, a drill, and a
spray bottle with water. Here’s how to make them:
• Use a hot glue gun to attach magnets to the
corks. Let them dry overnight.
• Once they’ve had at least 24 hours to dry, drill
a single hole in the tops of each cork, stopping
about halfway down. Make the hole as wide as
you can without ruining the cork edge.
• Fill the hole partially with soil, then place the
succulent into the hole.
• Fill the remainder of space with soil, being sure
to cover the roots.
• Spray the soil and cork slightly with water.
This will help secure the succulent into place.
Water as needed to nourish your little plant.
