Crafting with Corks

Hello!  Took some time out from paper crafting to do some crafting  with Wine Bottle Corks.  I made this Bird House with corks and a hot glue gun following a design that I saw on Pinterest.  We have collected a LOT of corks over on the years and I am always looking for ways to reuse. Have made wreaths, caroling angels, trivets, bulletin boards, etc but this new project used a lot of corks....about 169-I counted.  I used a lot of glue to make sure it holds together and added a screw eye for hanging.  I plan to make the entry hole smaller but still working on that.  It should be only 1.25 -1.5 inches for smaller birds and to keep out the larger birds and predators.  Below photos show the sides and back.

Now I have to decide if I will hang this outside for the birds in the spring.  If I make another one, I will include an opening so the house can be cleaned after use by a bird family. 

Have a great day!  I think I will go uncork another bottle of wine and start saving for another project.
