........here's what you make when you're wondering what to do with those wine bottle corks and a few beads, and a spritz of fuzzy yarn! I have an assortment of pretty interesting corks from our local cafe/coffee shop, where they serve and sell wine. And the bottles these days! Beautiful !
Too bad it disagrees w/me since I've gotten "older". Duh. I'm getting SO tired of hearing why I can't/shouldn't/mustn't/ eat or drink or do so many things now that used to not bother me at all ! Mama was right again. Old age is NOT for sissies! But the good thing is: I CAN still digest chocolate!
My favorite is semi-sweet pieces like you bake cookies with.... hubby wondered what happened to the pack we had in the cabinet when he went to make a batch of cookies?! Heh, heh............

Phyl,
I Love your doll... Such a cute idea.... I have been saving corks for years!!!! Never thought why??!! haha
Now-a-days I notice in some bottles they are using a synthetic cork.... Who care, I just LOVE what is inside.. VBG
Too bad you can't enjoy the bubbly anymore. I have friends on lipitore and they can't either..... The Golden Years......UGH!! but I guess it is better than the alternative...
((((hugs)))))

I forgot to mention I rarely have chocolate!! Great change from the days I would eat 2 lbs. of chocolate macaroons in a day!!!! I had to stop as it was causing migraine headaches.
I don't get the headaches anymore, and I have really lost my taste for chocolate....
((((HUGS))))

What a cute idea of the little cork doll!

If I had to choose from wine to chocolate, chocolate would win out every time!
