Wine Cork Mini Christmas Trees
It’s beginning to FEEL a lot like Christmas here in “sunny” Florida. Yesterday the temperatures barely rose into the fifties, and today I’ve turned the heat on. I gave in. I can’t handle being too cold inside! Since the winter weather is officially here, the Christmas decor is coming out. I’m not waiting a second longer! This week is another installment of ‘Tis the Season: a holiday themed link up where you can share your best holiday crafts, DIY, recipes, and tips. Here’s my contribution to the collection.

Fill your home with miniature holiday trees when you give this wine cork mini tree craft a try. This craft is a wonderful way to bring some winter beauty indoors, and can be done in just minutes. Take a peek below at how to craft your own wine cork mini trees, perfect for your holiday decorating. We all know I have quite a few corks handy! 😉
Supplies needed:
- Wine corks
- Sharp tool for poking (pencils or sewing needles work great)
- Hot glue, glue gun
- Fresh pine branches {Look for branches that are thin and that could easily fit in a pencil sized hole.}
Directions:
- Begin by poking a hole in the top center of your wine cork. We used a knitting needle and simply applied some pressure to create a hole.
- Add a dab of glue directly into the hole.
- Take the pine branch piece and clean it off around the end. Remove any needles so just the stem is exposed.
- Poke the pine tree stem into the cork. Hold it in place until it is secure.
Your wine cork mini tree is now ready to be displayed. You can create a grouping of these and display them on a fancy tray, or put one at each place setting for your holiday meal. If you wish, you can even glue on some glitter or tiny paper ornaments!
