Cork Creations - 12 Modern Sew and No-Sew Cork Creations

Cork oak trees live for about 300 years, and harvesting these trees increases their lifespans, as well as helping the ecosystem where these trees live. When these trees age 25 years, the bark is stripped, and the tree is tagged with the date. Nine years later, the harvest happens. The cork planks are naturally dried in forest piles and sent to be processed at the factory where it is boiled to make cork cells. There are no chemicals used, but this process makes it easier to work with. Shaved into thin sheets like tissue paper, the cork boards are glued to polycotton fabric where each sheet is designed and shaped by hand. By doing this, cork projects become easier to create.
