zip zip




so... as I approached my spring cleaning binge of going through my closets and drawers donating all sorts of goodies, I found a few old bags that were ripped and really were in terrible condition. I got yet another thought... I should totally take them apart inside and out and take off all the hardware... after a few minutes of rummaging and ripping, unscrewing, etc. I took off most of the hardware from a few bags of mine and turned them into new relics! here's a pair of earrings I made out of zippers from one bag. I love how long the zipper body actually is and thought what better way to display these but make them into earrings!! fun no? I also made a few more leather pieces which I will post photos of shortly. Speaking of leather-I absolutely LOVE working with it. It is just something that I understand now, and that I'm so glad I began to dabble in.
more projects will be posted soon as well. I work on a few different things at once so I'll be finishing them off shortly. I also just ordered a ton of snap fasteners and rivets from a fantastic website. can't wait to receive them! :]
