So, these zipper pulls are totally cute and my vision is that the kids will put these on their backpacks and perhaps have a couple of missionary moments explaining what it means!
These are so easy to make and the cost per pull is about $.96 (I made 50 for $48.13; the more you make, the lower the per pull cost will be). The cheapest I could find these already made were $1.50, so this is a steal!
I will give you all the links on where to buy the supplies and tell you how to make them! (Side note: my Amazon links will credit my affiliate account; I have no affiliation with the Etsy links).
You will need:
- 1" flat bottle cap zipper pulls (Etsy)
- Epoxy Stickers (the above link sells the stickers with the zipper pulls)
- 1" hole punch (Amazon)
- E6000 craft adhesive (Amazon)
- Digital Images (I bought neutral and girl colors; but the seller offers other colors too) (Etsy)
- With the digital images, you will have to make a 4x6 picture at Walgreens, Sam's Club, etc. (not at Target or CVS as their ink tends to run with the adhesive)
- NOTE: Make sure the picture is sized correctly so that the top row of images is not cut off.
Once you get all of your supplies, you will:
- Punch out your images
- Peel off the epoxy sticker (make sure you don't touch the sticky surface or your fingerprints will be immortalized on the zipper pull forever!)
- Put the punched out image on the sticky part so that the image shows through the front.
- Smooth out any bubbles with a credit card.
- Put a pea sized amount of the E6000 adhesive on the bottle cap.
- Place the epoxy sticker with image on the glue dollop and move it around so that the glue gets spread everywhere.
- Let it sit for 24 hours and you are DONE!
How easy was that?!?!?! So easy and so cute! It kills two birds with one stone--reminding the kids of this year's theme AND as a missionary tool! You can't ask for anything more for just $.96!!!
Happy Crafting!
