Used them to finish out my trivit kit...bigger than the corks you get out of a bottle; but what can you say....they are just corks!

Too fat

Pros

Cons

  • Too thick

Best Uses

They are much thicker than corks out of a bottle so they don't fit the bulletin board properly or line up with my own corks. They do not appear to be used corks.

Used the corks to make bulletin boards. They were nice to work with, but the real used corks from real wine bottles have more appeal.

Pros

  • Ergonomic
  • Variety
  • Easy to Use
  • Attractive Design
  • Easy To Clean
  • Durable

Cons

  • Too uniform in size
  • Not really "recycled"

Best Uses

  • Wine cork wreaths
  • Purses
  • Crafts

They are all so uniform in size/shape that they don't really look recycled or used. Also, they don't have "holes" in them from corkscrews, so I guess they really aren't/weren't used. Just TOO uniform.

Cork It Up!

Pros

  • Easy to Use
  • Attractive Design
  • Durable

Cons

Best Uses

  • Gifts

The corks worked great to make the coasters and trivets. They were easy to cut and fit into odd size spaces. The sandpaper included made it very easy to smooth edges and reduce size by just a little. I was also very happy to see that a hanger was included to allow the recipient to make it into a wall hanging.

Pros

  • Not what I expected

Cons

  • Difficult To Use
  • Corks weren't same size

Best Uses

  • Can't think of one

Used wine corks. Don't know what I expected but these weren't it. Very difficult to use in assembling for my tray. Better to collect your own even if it takes some time. Would have returned if not for the fact that returning would have cost more than the corks. You really get what you pay for!

  • Home Bar

[...] We bought the corks to fill 2 large cork boards. When we pooled our 7 bags of corks to sort them, we found we were shorted 3 corks. That doesn't seem like a lot, but we wished we had them since several corks were oddly small and a few were shredded from a cork screw. All-in-all, we were shorted about 11 corks out of 7 bags.
