Creative Corks N'More

I was recently contacted by two lovely people, Devon and Tanita, who asked me to do a feature on their shop. Creative Corks N'More is an amazing shop based in Eugene, Oregon, which participates in the state's active green movement. Devon and Tanita do a wonderful job in reminding us that garbage has feelings too!! There is nothing more wonderful than an object with history and purpose. Their purpose with this shop is to "use less, reuse more, and have fun with garbage." They couldn't do it any better! 


Creative Corks N'More offers recycled products made from corks and mason jars. Why corks and mason jars? The owners explain that there are two main reasons for this; They are easy and simple to work with and, unlike general crafting medias, have endless possibilities. You can see the latter simply by looking at the main page of the shop. All their items are so imaginative and unique! 


With their shop, Tanita and Devon wish to share stories from the recycled items, in their own way. I think they achieve this perfectly. Here are some of my favorite items from this shop;

5 Antique Blue Mason Jars


Customized Cork Letter


Antique Blue Mason Jar Light Fixture


Customized Cork LOVE Statue
