DIY Cork Graduation Lei
With graduation season just around the corner, one of our favorite ways to honor a wine-loving celebrant is by gifting a Cork Lei. Pour yourself a glass of your favorite J. Lohr wine and sip along as you craft one for each “twenty-one and over” graduate.
Materials Needed
- Corks, roughly 50 depending on length
- Drill and Drill bit
- Ribbon or twine
- Straw
- Tape
Step #1
- Carefully drill out a hole in each cork. Be sure to use a drill bit that is larger than the thickness of the ribbon.
Step #2
- Thread the ribbon into the straw, pull all the way through, and tape to the end of the straw.
Step #3
- Continue to place corks through the straw, until the desired lengthed is reached.
Step #4
- Cut and tie off the ends.
Consider gifting the cork lei with the J. Lohr Signature Cabernet Sauvignon and a Paso Robles trip for wine tasting. This special wine is Jerry Lohr’s statement Paso Robles Cabernet - it’s ideal for celebrating life’s biggest achievements.
