I know that there are a number of hobbyists that use wine bottle corks to make a various number of geegaws, such as trivets, picture frames, etc.
If you know some one of those hobbyists are one yourself, I had a small party Valentine's and have several hundred wine bottle corks I will let you have absolutely free of charge.
