Two summers ago, my neighbor (who had owned 3 fabric stores and retired) gave me about 1,000 zippers and all of the stores' leftover trims which were still on the boards. Most of the zippers were 7-9" in an array of assorted colors. I grouped them by length and color and wrapped rubber bands around the tops to keep them together. Then I just tossed them in a large shopping bag and that's my storage! LOL Since then I have made a couple of dozen zipped cosmetic size bags in various theme fabrics. I gave some away, sold some and have some in my inventory in case I need a quick gift. (And that is why my house looks the way it does!!)
