DIY – Cork boat

August 20, 2019

DIY – Cork boat

Summer is not over yet, there are still a lot of fun summer things to do outside and enjoy the last summer days. We made some cork boats to sail in the pond, but they work well in the bath tub too.

For some reason we have collected a lot of wine corks this summer…

They are really super simple to make, the kids might need some help to put in the sharp toothpicks but it also works well to just glue the corks together and secure with a pair of rubber bands. Then you put the sewer in the middle. Cut a piece of fabric in a triangle shape and stitch a tunnel for the sewer and top it off with a piece of washi tape as a flag.

You will need:

  • Wine corks
  • Rubber bands
  • Wooden scewers
  • Wooden toothpicks
  • Washi tape
  • Fabric
  • Needle and thread or sewing machine

This is a creative blog, to inspire others to make stuff and be creative with your kids.

Don´t focus too much on the product, the end result, sometimes its about the journey itself. Dare to explore, to reuse, to try again, to fail and to have fun!  – Sofie
