Cork which is obtained from the Cork Oak tree, is a fantastic natural material to use in your house. Its a assumed that cork is only used for cork boards but it can be used for alot of other things. Lamps, tables, bowls and even floors. It looks nicely paired with more traditional decor and or modern decor. I say yes to Cork!!!

i LOVE cork too, i wonder how durable it is on floors? wonder what a cork wall in my office would look like?
Mmmm, love the cork table/stool. I’m curious how durable it is too, does it make good outdoor furniture? I’ve been curious about cork flooring too, I think it’s be cool!
I want to see cork floors!
I LOVE!
Love all these images…especially the wall covered in cork board! How fantastic would that be to be able to change out images all the time? Love it!
Such fun pics! That first lamp is crazy!
I’ve been seeing cork around a lot lately, and I really like the look of it. Thanks for the post.
