zipper embellisment

On my many trips to walmart....I found this tank top for $1. really. I couldn't just pass that up. I don't even wear tank tops but I thought I could adjust it to fit my daughter.

bought a big heavy duty zipper that was 24 in long. ($2.50 I might add)

played around with it to figure out what I wanted to do.

a Belt?

a zip right up the front?

a little y shaped?

or just a bow corsage?

which one did I pick?

which one would you have picked?

(I might go back and get a BIGGER zipper and make myself a belt! why do I say that? I should just let you believe I have a 24 inch waist....cause I do..or did...once....in middle school.)

pin pin pin.

and sew sew sew.

Then I trimmed off some of the  straps

and put it in the opening of the "y"

I also put a dob of hot glue right uder the zipper..to keep it from slidding down

You could have sewn it...but I didn't want to risk breaking a needle on those metal teeth.

just added a little something something

a little more Rock and Roll

(look at her mouth...she is so whining about modeling--I told her that people get paid big money to model and she asked me how much I was going to give her.  Greedy already. Isn't my constant love enough?)

we just happened to have a matching guitar

I might have been singing the Donny and Maria Osmond song, "I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit rock and roll" when I made this.....couldn't get it out of my head!
