Those look great! I buy the old stainless silver ware at Thrift stores and use the use the handles to write the names on, they don't rust when stuck in the garden. Some with the old plastic handles really look good too. You need to use paint pens as no other pens are permanent, Also, the wine corks I label pretty much the same but some I really decorate with beads, etc. to use in house plants or in an indoor kitchen herb garden. Thanks so much for posting your pics, One of these days I'm going to learn how.

I've found that the compost-ability of wine corks depends on the terroir. On the one hand, the 1968 Bordeaux Chateau Margaux, the Montrachet 1978 from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, yer 2004 Domaine d'Escausse La Croix Petite, Gaillac, an' them 1999 and 2000 Giacomo Marengo La Commenda, Tenuta del Fondatore Chianti Riserva compost pretty good. But don't even try with the 2003 Domaine Chante Cigale Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Those corks will be gumming up your tiller, sticking to your pitchfork tines so ya gotta scrape them off constantly, and popping up in your potting soil for years.

Can these corks be used to bottle wine? I have no idea if corks can be reused. My BF made some wine this year and he is need of bottles and corks. LMK! I have some lobelia cardinalis (hummers), pink candle celosia (hummers and butterflies), blue picotee morning glory, red cypress vine, some other seed from trades and a whole bunch of lettuces (purchased).
