Red or white? Or, maybe mom’s a fan of the best rosé wine. Whatever she’s drinking, boy, is she drinking. This Mother’s Day, commemorate your wine mom’s drinking habits with the keepsake she’s always wanted: a wine cork holder.
Some corks are too good not to keep. Whether it’s a cork with a funny word on it, a cork from a bottle she’s been saving for years or simply a cork from her favorite bottle, wine corks can hold sentiment to wine lovers for various reasons. Some corks are simply far too special to throw in the trash bin. That’s why wine cork holders are so perfect for gifting wine lovers. They are a solid spot for cork-collecting that makes these otherwise mundane treasures look like they’re part of the furniture.
Wine cork holders come in all shapes in sizes for a variety of drinkers and home aesthetics. Some sit on the ground as a sort of wine cork basket while others hang on the wall as decorative wall art. There are options for the bottle-a-night type and the bottle-a-year kind of gal, too, so even if your mom loves wine but only drinks it once in a while, there will be a wine cork holder for her.
Because wine cork holders make such excellent gifts, there’s no better time than now to get browsing for Mother’s Day. We collected a number of our favorites below, so pop open a bottle yourself and get looking.
