Have you ever had a good look at the cork from your wine bottle ? ( no, not when tipsy trying to squeeze out the last drop ! )They have the most marvelous designs on. I especially like the Rioja ones ...well I would I did live in Spain !
I display mine in this printer's box which I bought in Brighton when I was a student. I used to keep teeny ornaments in it but put the corks in when I was looking for some way to display them.
