Hi Everyone,

For this swap you will make something out of cork. You may use other materials as well but at least 50% of the item should be recycled/repurposed cork. You may also incorporate items that are already made from recycled cork, such as cork paper, if it is already in your supply stash. You may use natural and/or synthetic cork.

Since this is senders choice you may get started as soon as you sign up for the swap.

Any questions or suggestions for improving this swap before it begins, feel free to let me know.

Here are some cork examples to get our imagination going:
* Cork items on Etsy
* 25 Things to do With Used Corks (Including Making Money With Them)
* DIYs with Cork
* How to Reuse Old Wine Corks
* Nextag cork search

I've been playing around with some wine corks and man, this stuff is difficult for me to work with! I may have to give in and buy some cork from the craft store...lol.

I'm sure you"ll find a fun and functional reuse instead of buying something new. You can do it!
