"Make do and mend?"

Ever thought that yesterday's busted zipper could become tomorrow's edgy wrist adornment? Neither did I, until recently. After upcycling an old dress of mine into a cute wee skirt for my friend's under-five, I had a long zip left over. A quick online search brought this up – can't wait to try it!
