I was given a bag of zippers from my mother so I thought I'd try my hand at making zipper flowers and other things...sewed them onto macrame wreaths I made a while ago.
My first attempt at making flowers

    I used to make purses to sell and used the zippers to make "flowers" to adorn the outside of the purse.
