Which means it’s time to share a wine-related repurposing idea: Use corks as coaster tops. (via Libbie on Etsy)
For additional inspiration: Check out the Unconsumption “wine o’clock” series — a semi-regular series of Friday afternoon posts — here.
Salud!

It’s wine o’clock somewhere — which means it’s time to share another wine-related repurposing find.
Today, it’s wine corks used as floor covering.
This photo, via MSN, shows the cork-floor handiwork of Dan Phillips, of Huntsville, Texas-based Phoenix Commotion (mentioned previously on Unconsumption here), which constructs affordable homes from recycled, salvaged, and/or found materials.

Today, it’s stools made from corks. (Could also be used as side tables, maybe?)
If, like me, you’re wondering what these stools’ cores consist of, the source says the stools are “100% cork.” So, there’s that!

Save wine bottles, make your own tables.
Simply insert bottles in to openings in pieces of wood. In addition to use as table tops, the pieces of wood (in this case, they’re scrap wood sealed with a wax finish) can function as serving trays.
Brazilian designer Tati Guimarães designed this collection. We featured her metal frame that holds corks — for use as trivets, or to hang on a wall — on Unconsumption here (way back in June 2009!). Check out her site, Ciclus, for additional information.

It’s wine o’clock somewhere(!), which means it’s time to share a wine-related repurposing find.
Today’s find is a DIY idea: Combine corks with scrap fabric to make a nativity scene.
