Assuming I have all the cork pin-boards I could ever use, what else can I use wine bottle corks for???
Never have found anything really worthwhile to do with them!

We use them to light the fire or we put them in the compost bin

we use the corks instead of bark chips and the bottles for decoration and aggregate
but then i've not thrown a bottle away in 18 years
