Zipper Fun 2

Zipper Heart Pin

Zipper Heart Pin
Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Whimsical, Casual


Materials

zipper, faux crocodile, perle cotton, Swarovski crystals, magnet button fastener.

What was your inspiration?

Google and Pinterest Images. Originally was going to copy and use the zipper pull without the heart echos, but my little one took the pull off. I'm sure I could have worked it back on or spent another couple bucks for another zipper, but I'm glad that I used the "oops" moment to create something a little different.

What are you most proud of?

Magnetic "pin"...no holes in clothes, and magnet is strong enough to use on a light sweater. Got the idea from a friend.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Although I hand sewed the heart together, I used Fabric Fusion glue to make sure it stayed together. Also used Gorilla's version of super glue to attach the crystal to the metal stop.
