The advent calendar for bag makers...

Day 20 includes two solid matt silver zipper pulls with a dot detail at the end. These are simple, durable and designed to work across a wide range of bag styles.

As mentioned back on Day 7, adding a quality  zipper pull is one of the easiest ways to upgrade a handmade bag. It adds weight, improves the feel of the zip and gives a more professional finish without too much extra work. These pulls work particularly well with number five zipper tape. 

Not sure how to add a pull to zipper tape? Don’t worry you can watch a full video here; it’s not as hard as it looks once you get the hang of it. 

Or a shorter video can be seen here.

Including a second style of zipper pull gives you more flexibility when finishing your bags. Some designs suit a cleaner, minimal look and these are ideal for that.
