These custom zipper pulls are a fun way to accessorize a backpack, lunchbox or purse. They’re perfect for little hands and the color combinations are endless.
Supplies:
- Embroidery floss in desired colors
- Yard stick
- Scissors
- Metal lobster claw swivel clasps
- Pony beads in desired colors
Directions:
Using a yard stick, measure and cut 2 yards of embroidery floss. Fold cut floss in half, then in half again, then in half a third time until it measures approximately 9 inches in length. Thread folded floss through ring of clasp and fold in half again.
Thread 7 pony beads onto floss, twisting floss if necessary to assist in threading. Once beads are threaded, tie a knot right next to final bead. Trim excess floss 1 1/2 inches from knot to create fringe.
Enjoy!
ORANGE & FIELD TIP: To use two different colors of floss, cut 1 yard of each and begin folding from there.
