    Bring them to a specialty woodworker and get a custom designed bulletin board framed/ made from them. It will look great and unique and will be a nice addition to the office.

    At my house we lined the entire door to the wine cellar with corks (with ends pointing out) - built a frame on the inside of the door to accommodate this and a lot of hot glue gunning. The end result looks excellent and doubles as insulation.

    ME TOO! I did find a vase similar to the one in the Pottery Barn picture at Michael's one year unfortunately it was a very thin glass and did not surrvive oour last "quake"...*totally off topic* but I have been dying to ask Pixx Flixx, does that refer to Liberty City, TX ???
