Zipper flower

Post by Yoli »

This is my first attempt to make a zipper flower for a printer tray project I'm working on. I used embroidery thread because it matched the color of the zipper. Unfortunately the thread kept breaking. I've been advise to use a nylon thread next time.

If you are interesting in making one of these flowers I've provided a link below to several tutorials on YouTube. The flowers are so cool and could be used in a variety of projects. I've seen these flowers on necklaces, headbands and of course craft projects.

Those are such neat projects - I missed a chance a couple of years ago in taking a class on making "zipper art". There are some websites that do tell about how to do this.
