Good Book And Zipper Heart

I have started watching their show lately so this book filled me in on how it all started.  Way back to their first date.  Sorry the picture is blurry.


This is the zipper heart pin I made today.  Zipper teeth hand sewn to a felt base.  I love the contrast in this one.

More Playing Today

Here is the zipper playing I did today.  This is 1/2 a zipper worked just once around and a button in the middle.  I put a magnet on the back of this one.


This one is made on a heart shaped piece of felt with just the teeth of the zipper. The zipper teeth are hand sewn to the felt. I then took the 2nd. heart and sewed a pin back to it.  I then glued the 2 hearts together.  I like this look a lot.


I am having fun playing with things I can donate to the church bazaar in Nov.

Playing With New Ideas

Here is a cross magnet I made from 4 spoon handles, a flower button and a magnet.  I used the E6000 glue after trying several other glues that did not work.  It is not blue that is just my crazy camera.


Another kind of zipper flower.  I put a magnet on this one.


A different zipper flower that lays flat and I added a magnet to this one too.  It is really white with a teal button in the center.


I love trying new projects and will be trying other zipper things in the near future.

Zipper Flower Pins

With all the zippers I was given I looked for new ideas to use them.  Here are the first of my projects.  This flower pin has metal teeth.


This is the 2nd one I made.  It really is mauve in color not orange.  It has nylon teeth.


What do you think about them?  I may make some for our church bazaar in Nov.  It takes one 14 inch zipper for each flower.

Flowers and Antique Bread Box

Here are the flowers that are blooming now.



I ask our church Bazaar group if they had any zippers so that I could make some zippered pouches for the Bazaar in Nov.  This is what she left for me at the church.  It is an antique bread box.


And this is what is inside.  She does not want the box or any of the zippers back.  I will never need to buy zippers again.
