I think that wine corks look great in a big glass vase! They also can be used to create a frame for a photo or mirror which is cool.

I make trivits with picture frames of different sizes, I also make cork memo boards with picture frames. Just line up the corks in any pattern you like (you may have to cut a few to adjust for size)lay them on a board that is attached to the back of your frame and hot glue them. They last a long time and make nice gifts . Enjoy.

yes, Pinterest is a good idea. One was to soak the real cork ones in alcohol and save as fire starters. I don't know about the rubbery ones, but those if you like to fish can be used as bobbers with a little work. A paper clip, ice pick, and some beads and you can see how that would work. You could also paint different colors and put in a large clear bowl or brandy glass, etc. for a different look. Good reasons for having a glass of vino...every so often.
