DIY: Cork Name Card Holders
Why not throw a wine party for close family and friends? Let's just not make this any old wine party; let's put some excitement into this one! Have all of your guests bring over a bottle of wine they have never tried, choosing a wine label that best depicts their personality. You’ll be floored with what people come up with! Serve light appetizers: cheese, crackers, shrimp, and fruit.
As for the decor, wow your guest with a beautiful candle-lit room, decorated with a touch of flowers. Take corkscrews and use them as name stands for table settings or food labels. Your wine party will be a hit, and, I promise you, your guests will go home trying to mimic your wine party.
Here's what you'll need:- wine corks (1 per place card)
- X-acto knife
- cardstock
- black marker/calligraphy pen
- Cut off one side of the cork lengthwise with your X-acto knife so that it will lay flat
- On the opposite side, use your X-acto knife to make a shallow cut down the cork's middle lengthwise
- Use the cardstock to cut out place cards that are slightly longer than the corks
- Use your marker to write your guests' names on each of the cards (Use a calligraphy pen if you know how.)
- Secure one name card in each cork and neatly line them up on a table
