If you are hunkering down and drinking some wine this weekend because of this, try out this cute craft that Storm Track 8 Meteorologist Eric Sorensen and I worked on during our “Nailed It Or Failed It?” Segment on WQAD News 8 at 11am:

If you're like me, you have a LOT of wine corks sitting around. I needed them when I decided (and this was not my smartest idea) to make 250 wine cork coasters for my wedding back in 2012. In the more than four years since that day - I still collect wine corks, but don't really have a use for them.

Until now! Thanks to the blog, Make the Best of Things, I figured out how to take a couple of wine corks, some small twigs, and create this cute little reindeer:

With the amount of wine corks I have collected over the past four years, I could make about 50 of these. I'm not sure if my dog, Zuno, would appreciate some new "friends" popping up around the house, though.

Make sure to follow us on the WQAD News 8 Pinterest Page!  If you decide to try out this project, please share your pictures to my Facebook page.
