Here are a few examples:
These are my favorite: Brass Zipper Bracelets, by thehippychicksews.
Although I don't wear pins, toniandtree just might change my mind.
Here's a lapel pin in their shop:
toniandtree have a lot of useful items for sale, like ID reels. This retractable ID badge caught my eye right away:
I'll admit it. I had a hard time, stepping away from their shop. Now this eyeglass holder is something I could definitely use, since I’m using reading glasses at work now.
So I guess zippers are not just for keeping things closed anymore...

Those are very cool ways to recycle zippers! How fun!
I have seen really awesome items created from zippers--people are so creative!
I really like that lapel pin.

Those bracelets are so fun!
I've seen zippers used in scrapbooking lately too. They use just one side of the teeth to wrap around in a circle to form a flower...so cool!
Great recycing idea - & great ‘Z’ post!
Happy Alphabe-Thursday!

Cool. And the bracelets are especially so.
=)
What amazing creations!
I've seen zippers around about too and the ones you show are amazing! Who would have thought!! Plus, zippers are much quieter than velcro!
Fun Z!!
These zipper finds are awesome! I love the bracelet and brooch. I don't think that Velcro is going to replace the zipper entirely any time soon.
Cute, cute! I love all the fun bows that I have seen made with zippers. Fun z post!
What a cool use for zippers!
Wow, very cool zipper bangles...and that eye glass holder is so cute! Great picks Deb:)
very creative use of zippers. that lapel pin is wonderful!
So creative! Hmmm. I think I have some old zippers in my sewing stash...but I bet these are not as easy to create as they at first appear.
Very creative post...great Z word...but most of all I so like your drawing of a zipper in action! very, very cool! Thanks!
How totally clever ! I love those bracelets!!!
Some very creative people out there. I'm afraid I only use zippers for the good old fashion use.

I love zipper art. And, oddly, bicycle chain art, too.
Yeah.
I'm weird.
But you're not.
You're amazing.
That drawing is soooo neat!
It would be cool to make a zipper alphabet for little kids.
Thanks for another zesty post.
Hope to Z you again soon.
A+
