I came up with a cute idea for our reception table number / name card holders!  Of course, I cannot reveal my idea just yet, but all you need to know is that it involves wine corks!  40 wine corks to be exact.

Cork Collection!

How ever am I going to get 40 wine corks in 5 months?!  That is 40 bottles of wine!  I don’t think Matt will approve of me drinking that much wine, although if you know me, you know I can do it!

SOLUTIONS:

1)  I hear a glass of red wine a day keeps the doctor away.   I did the math, I could have one glass of wine every day for the next 5 months and that would give me 38 bottles and 38 corks!  (30 days x 5 months = 150 days / 4 glasses per bottle = 38 bottles). DOABLE!

2)  Host a wine party!  TOTALLY DOABLE!

3)  Ask friends for cork donations.  I’m sure some of my friends go through a bottle of wine a week; I can just collect their corks.  DOABLE but BORING!

CONCLUSION:

Don’t whine, do wine!  It’s time to start cracking open those bottles and saving those corks!  All 3 solution ideas are viable options and deserve to be put into action, especially #1 and #2 ;)
