Wine Cork Friends

Yesterday, while stuck at home without a car we were (I was) in desperate need of something to do that was a little more structured than running in circles and making kitty noises. So I pulled out our jar of yarn scraps, jar of wine corks, markers, glue and pipe cleaners and this is what we got. Wine cork friends. I really tried to come up with a more creative name or one that alluded to drinking A LOT of wine, but all you'll find from these is that we (again it's just an I here) drink a lot of cheap Pinot.

I honestly had as much fun making these as Abe had. He was really excited about the glue, I was really excited about all of the yarn hair possibilities. Meet our friends...

This is Smokey, as in Smoking Loon Pinot.

This is Pepper, he's kind of a crazy eyed monster.

This guy practically wears his name like a badge.
Can you believe that his hair is cashmere?

This lady is French, her name is Champagne,
she's the life of the party and an opera singer
