Sponge wine bottle stoppers have unique properties that make them useful not only in the process of storing drinks, but also in everyday life.

Due to their porous structure, they are able to absorb moisture and retain odors, which allows them to be used for various purposes.

For example, you can use the mentioned qualities of wine corks to combat unpleasant odors in the refrigerator or freezer.

Since the plugs are made of natural porous material, they will easily eliminate the mentioned problem.

Just place a few corks on the shelves of your refrigerator, and those repulsive “aromas” will no longer bother you.

In addition, due to their ability to absorb moisture, pieces of cork will help maintain an optimal level of humidity in the refrigerator.

What about handmade? Wine corks make a great hot pad, as this product has low thermal conductivity.

To make a wine cork stand, you will need the corks themselves, a glue gun, and a base to hold the structure. Cut the corks into circles, strips, or use whole. You can lay them out vertically or horizontally, depending on your preference.

You can also simply glue the corks together without using a base and get an original and functional stand.
