Wine Cork Pumpkin DIY
Make a creative Wine Cork Pumpkin DIY using recycled wine corks. If you don’t drink wine, you can ask your friends to save theirs, or you can pick some up at the craft store. This little pumpkin can be used year after year in your fall decor.
I couldn’t wait to share this adorable wine cork pumpkin DIY. We all love a good upcycled craft and this one couldn’t be easier. Just gather some wine corks and fire up the glue gun to make this little cutie. You can leave it a natural color, or paint it. I finished it off with a pretty grateful stencil. Use your creativity and most of all, have fun!

How to make a Wine Cork Pumpkin DIY
Gather your wine corks. Hot glue the wine corks together trying to choose similar size corks so they will line up properly.
Continue to hot glue wine corks together in a row of four for the bottom of the pumpkin.
Next up use your chip brush to paint a light coat of orange paint on the pumpkin.

To really make this pumpkin stand out, I added the word grateful to the front of the pumpkin with a stencil and a sharpie paint pen.
Finish it off by gluing a wine cork to the top of the pumpkin to represent the stem.
Add a couple of faux leaves to the top and this little pumpkin is complete!
Doesn’t it look just adorable? And to think this started out as with a bag of wine corks. Now that I’ve made a pumpkin and a tree, what do you think about a snowflake for winter? What idea do you have for a wine cork craft?

I like that you added the stencil too! Also, I see you put the tree in a picture frame? Lots of cute ideas! I’m finishing up making the $ Tree metal ribbon pumpkin. I may put a tea light ( battery type) inside with some moss…
Perfect project for the corks I’ve been saving!
