I got these kits from Craft Supplies USA, they looked neat, with the corkscrew inside the bottle stopper..........
.....but, I really, REALLY did not like the way they show these done, with the large cone shaped stopper and then the reduction in size down to the screw in part which holds the corkscrew, so I drilled a hole large enough to hide the size reducing thing, if that make sense.....
I had six on hand, so I made six
The first three are some Sakura that I got a while back from my "Logging in Tokyo" adventure, the second set of three are Keyaki, from my local Shinto shrine.
I'll still be playing with the shapes, sized, but I figured for these, with the corkscrew attachment, they needed to have a bit of size to them, so you can draw out a cork.
These are going to Canada with me as presents for friends and family, but I'll be ordering a bunch more, to make and (hopefully) sell in the liquor shop.
Fun and easy to do.
Cheers!
