Do you have any tips for working with cork?

If you are new to working with cork, then there are some things to consider before you begin, depending on the project that you have in mind. It is important that you pick the right thickness of cork for your project, particularly with regard to cork sheets, coasters or placements. If you are working with a cork sheet, then it might be a good idea to unroll the product and flatten it a few hours before you begin. This will help to air the natural aroma of the material and help to prevent it from rolling up when you start. If you are using a thin cork, then you can use a sharp pair of scissors or a craft knife to cut the material.

Be careful when you are cutting it as some cork products can tear easily. Clean your cork using a damp cloth, ensuring that you dust it regularly and that the surface is properly cleaned before you begin crafting. Do not store cork in the sun and avoid storing near any heat sources. The heat can make cork dry and brittle and affect the longevity of your crafty creations.
