I love using Homemade ornaments at Christmas time. They make it seem even more special. We used plain corks to make our candle Christmas ornaments but kids can have fun painting them too if you prefer!
These cork candle ornaments are super sweet. You can sit them on your mantlepiece or add a little loop of florist wire or ribbon and they’re such a lovely way to decorate your Christmas tree too!

How to Make a Wine Cork Christmas Ornament
1 – Cut a circle of red foam (or cardboard) for each cork to sit on. It needs to be wider than the cork.
2 – Glue the cork onto the red foam and then glue on a ring of green faux wreath stems.
3 – Make your candle’s flame by folding a small piece of yellow pipe cleaner in half. then push the pointed ends of the pipe cleaner into the top of the wine cork.
4 – Tie a short length of red ribbon into a little bow and glue it on.
5 – To hang your cork candles on the Christmas tree make a hanging loop. We used a length of florist wire and pushed the ends into the cork but you could also glue on a loop of ribbon if you prefer.
6 – Once all the glue is dry, your wine cork candle ornament is ready to hang on your Christmas tree!
I hope you enjoy your beautiful wine cork candle ornaments as much as we have! What a fun wine cork craft for Christmas.
