Steps:

  1. With the cardboard set, measure the corks to make sure your cardboard is the right size. Turns out it's perfect for the project. If you don't have a mini calendar, just use a piece of box cut up or cork if you have it.
  2. Simple Wine Cork Trivet - measure cardboard insert and cut to size, or use a piece of recycled cardboard or a sheet of cork
     
  3. I mixed the directions for a cooler look, but you can have them all one directions if you want. The cool thing is that each cork is the exact length to it's width. So two one way is the same as two the other.
  4. Once you know they will all fit, glue them on in any direction.

  6. Glue a hanger on the middle of one side or the corner. I used lace. You can use ribbon, a bread tag, wire, etc. You are ready to use and then hang where you can get to it fast!! N-JOY!!
