Button texture stamps
Here’s a clever idea to decorate your work. Make a collection of texture stamps from buttons glued onto the ends of corks. That way they can be stamped repeatedly as the cork makes them easy to handle. Just use a glue gun to glue the button on one end (or both). You may have to drink a few bottles of wine for the corks (not all at once - Editor) but this is the sacrifice you sometimes have to make for art.
