Tips & Triva

• You can also make standing plant holders. You don’t need to use the magnets then, but might need to even out the bottom of the corks to make them stand straight.
• I really like the natural look of cork, but if you like a more festive look for your plant holders you can of course always paint them. I would recommend painting the cork before following the steps above.
