Crafting with corks – cool decorative items and furniture
Exceptional crafting ideas for you – Do not throw away the corks!
What is cork? This is the bark of cork oak – a rare species of tree that can be seen in certain places in the world. Still on the bark one can recognize the dead tissue, whereby no tree juices flow. The superficial tree cells divide and protect the tree from injury and direct sunlight.
If we peel the bark of any tree, he will die. But the dead bark of the cork tree looks quite different – it creates storage space for more new dead cells.
In this way, you can use the cork bark for everyday needs and not hurt or fell the tree.
Crafts with corks
The cork trees do not thrive everywhere, but only on the east coast of South America, in some areas around the lake of Japan, on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey, in Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco. Without success, they have been trying to replant the cork oak in the last 50-60 years.
The home decoration and the DIY decorative items made of corks are very pleasant and funny tasks. Not to mention the ecological, and inexpensive idea for functional home accessories at home. The cork is a really cool material, practical and flexible, perfect for contemporary interiors, handcrafted accessories and even cork flooring in every room. The cork products give your interior design a fresh, extraordinary look.
