How do you imagine a cork tree would look? If you were going to make one, what construction method would you use?
In 2006 I posted a photo of a cork Christmas tree that was made by gluing wine corks together into a smooth cone and attaching small ornaments.
I recently received an elaborate cork Christmas tree uses various sized wine corks. The corks were drilled to allow a dowel to be placed through the center and wires were inserted into corks to create branches. This one is complete with lights, grape cluster ornaments and an angel tree topper. Neat!
Another reader chose to create wine cork palm trees — creative and fun.
The trees will be shown in the next issue of Make Mine Wine which will come out in November.
In the meantime, let me know how you have — or would — construct a cork tree.
Cheers!

Would love to know more about the christmas trees and palm trees made out of corks! How can I get pictures of them?
Thank you
