I first cut the cork to where it was a bit shorter than my drill bit. Then I drilled a hole down the center of it. You want to use a bit that is slightly smaller than the wire. I then drilled a hole in the center of the cap then forced the wire through the cork. I then put glue in the moat of the cap and inserted the wire through the hole pushing it down til cork hit bottom. I set the finished product with the wire hanging down in some bottles to dry.
