DIY Corkies – champagne cork cake toppers

So apparently Corkies are a thing. I had never heard of them until a friend mentioned that she wanted some for her upcoming wedding. Since she kindly let me dye her purple for my wedding (Not on purpose but lets just say that I learned an important lesson. Polyester dye is finiky).. Anyway.. I figured offering to make her cake topper was the least I could do.

So WTF are Corkies? Corkies are champagne cork cake toppers. You can buy released champagne corks from various places such as eBay and Etsy.

The process of painting up some corkies goes a little like this;
