It is not very hard to make a great looking cork board..It just takes time and a little imagination. I'm not sure of this message will stick, but take a look at a few I made at picsfilms.com Hope you like!
I found some lovely wine cork display boards for sale at MyMarketStreetShop.com. They also have one that is already filled. This is an online consignment store so the prices are really reasonable.
What is the easiest way to cut the corks?
I love the wine cork board. On the video, Martha used a glue gun to add the last cork to the project. The written instructions say to use liquid cement to attach the corks. Which is best to use to attach the corks? Thanks!
thanks martha!!! I've been saving my corks and had this vision....but could not think of a creative way to align the corks!!! This looks wonderful.

i cannot find an off the shelf frame that is deep enough or not too deep for the corks. i fear i'll have to cut them in half lengthwise. any suggestions!?!
I got the video to play. I have used a kit to make a wine cork trivet before. I love the herringbone pattern on Martha's board. I have ordered the bulletin board kit and will try to replicate the pattern for my kitchen.
The video isn't playing for me either. I would love to see it though!
I can not get this to play either, all I see is an ad, and the video of Martha does not start. Please advise. Thank you!
I've been waiting to make this wine cork board for my neighbors, since last year and would love to see the video of Martha putting it together but I can't get it to play. I am only seeing the advertisements. Thanks!
