Looking on pinterest I stumbled across this great idea: decorated wine corks! Follow the link to go to the original blog, Fiskars.
1. Cut the corks into slices. You can use different sized corks for various effects.
2. Sand paper the corks till the surface is smooth.
3. You can paint or ink one side of the cork (I found that it looked nicer without the paint although one that had been painted did have a very nice effect.).
4. Stamp the corks, you don't need to have a stamp that is small enough for the cork. Just use a part of the stamp instead.
5. Screw in an eye screw and voila: you have a cork pendant that you can make into a necklace, keyring or something else.
Here are some of my finished charms:
