Tutorial: Easy zipper bracelet

Ama from Ohoh Blog shows how you can make a cute bracelet out of a metal zipper.  This would be a great way to use those zippers you bought for a project but ended up never using!  They’re super easy to make and require only basic jewelry making supplies (pliers) and findings.  The metal zipper teeth give it a little sparkle and a bit of edge.  Her tutorial is a guest post at Dream a Little Bigger.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
