Zip a de doo da

 Some tiny shells I collected ...the lighter is there to show you how small these are . I collected shell grit at the turn of the tide ,then sifted through it looking for shells :)
 Zipper 1 on a pencil case . Its made from a piece of ribbon, braid and a jewelry finding :)
 A sports bag .
 These are the zippers Im very pleased with :)
heres what I made them from ....wire edged ribbon ( I cut the silver bit from the side) ...an added bonus to this is you can cut off the outer edge and uncover some very fine wire :) I then trimmed the silver section back to the size I wanted , glued it to ribbon and added a finding :)
