zipper necklace-with the help of craftaholics anonymous

a few weeks ago, i saw this fantastic necklace on craftaholics anonymous. this is linda modeling it for us. hers is just amazing! being the copy cat that i am, i decided to make one for aunt trish for part of her mothers day gift.
i pretty much followed everything linda said HERE. i like playing it safe like that.
i ended up hitting 3 different stores and returning a bunch of stuff before finding the supplies i liked best. but in the end i like how trish's gift turned out and i think she will too. (ps-i showed it to bonner and she liked it too! does that sway your vote?)

of course, im her favorite so whatever i do, is wonderful!
this is my crazy aunt trish-she will be 52 this summer (this was taken last summer). doesnt she look wonderful? i like to think i take after her, but she is way way cooler! (this is her on a boat in the nyc harbor. she is always up there seeing plays and going to jazz clubs. she lives the life!)
