ZIP-UP-ZIPPER
I was working with a co-worker of mine on a project for custom upholstered chairs. The theme was punk rock and we decided to use spike studs and 2 way zippers as trim for the perimeter of the seat. The design was in place and now it was a matter of sourcing the materials. I looked everywhere on the web for zippers and studs and couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for. Then I stumbled upon this place, Zip-Up-Zippers, made a phone call and then drove down there to take a look. This place had everything! I even had the option of choosing between gold or aluminum for the zipper as well as multiple color choices for the banding. The zippers came on rolls which they cut per my specification of 20″L and they even assembled the zippers to function as 2way.
Along with the amazing zipper selection, they had great options for studs, decorative trim for furnishings or clothing, belts, buttons, etc. It was an accumulation of sorts and definitely something to spend some time looking through. It’s basically one of those places where you never know what you’re going to find. Expect to do some haggling, although the prices are already pretty low. It’s just the nature of the business.
