WIP Wednesday - January Slump

After the holidays, it seems like everything just gets a bit dreary!  I do have a birthday part coming up this weekend for one of my kids, which that's at least something to look forward to, but everyone is passing around colds, so I haven't had time to really plan anything fun for him!
So many fun styles of zipper pulls!  All from Wizardry, Stitchery and Crafts!

Rainbow snitch on rainbow zipper!
I'm making my way through the last of the orders that I didn't finish in 2019, but my sewing has definitely been at a slower pace and with a lot more Netflix going on at the same time!
This bag has been on the list forever!  It is a gift, not an order, so it kept getting bumped for higher priority stuff, so happy to have it almost done finally!
Apparently all my pictures this week are about zippers, but they are all so pretty!
Pretty castles! Might have to start carrying rose gold hardware!

    1. Some of those things have been on the list forever! It is great when I have some free time and don't know what to work on because I can just jump here and see my options, but then I usually go start an entirely new project LOL
