I have been looking for some original NOS vintage corks for quite a while and I finally
found a small quantity of 4" diameter and 2" thick corks to use for some lamps and
nautical decor for my back yard.This size is perfect for quite a few nautical applications
and for some reason darn hard to find .When I say hard to find....I have been scouring
estate sales, garage sales , flea markets and the internet for over 11 months before I
found these ..... and I could definitely use alot more.After alot of work , I am pleased
with the results .Here are some pics of finished lamps for yah!
Whatta yah think ??

A couple corks used on this one for a little more nautical look

The red at night looks absolutely incredible

Cobalt blue glass looking xlnt as well

And this is what they start looking like after about three zombies
