Thanks for your video! I’ve seen a few videos that show how to use a fork and it never made any sense to me and didn’t work. Your video, however, shows exactly what you are doing in a beautiful close up, and it makes perfect sense to me now!!
I was struggling to put the pull on the zipper tape...and was having a horrible time with the head wiggling all over...and then I found your video showing your trick with the fork...and it solved my problem!!! I was able to finish my project that I wasn't sure I'd be able to until I found your secret! Thank you so much!
Always just wondered how those work, now I know. Lady, you did a great presentation, no music, concise, right to the point and a good camera view. THANKS.
Omigod, the MUSIC!!! It has its place, adds to amusing videos, but on instructional ones it can be so distracting. Imagine if we were in some crafting/quilting class at a shop, and the teacher cranks up an annoying instrumental as soon as she starts talking! Gimme plainspeak any day, get to the point and don't rush through the demo. ZIPPER LADY does all the above without annoying me! ❤ It doesn't hurt my feelings that she has a pleasant speaking voice, too, with excellent diction.
Just fixed a canopy party tent zipper using your video! It took a bit of "jiggling" as you said it would, but I just saved a lot of money on either replacing the zipper or replacing the tent side! This was wonderful!!! Thanks so much.
I was on a deadline making a bag and in the middle of the project the zipper came off the tape.Tried for a long time to get it on but it wasn't happening. I ordered a zipper jig online - when it arrived it was the wrong size. Saw this video and got my fork and clamp and voila' - my zipper is back on the tape! THANK YOU so much for making and posting this video- it was extremely helpful!
You know, there's a lot going wrong in this world, and a sizable amount of it on this website, but this dad who's just trying to fix his son's pajamas is monumentally grateful that there is such a person as the zipper lady who knows all the tricks to zippering and then puts videos of it out for the world to see when they need to fix their son's pajamas.
Many many years ago I saw your video. I remembered I had this zipper roll I bought at the Pacific International Quilt Show in my bottom drawer. I could never figure out how to attach the darn pulls so there it sat for years. Your video fixed all that. Works like a charm. My mother-in-law gave me her mother's silver set and has beautiful salad forks. That's what I use. Thank you again
OMG..this trick is amazing.. thank you.. just saved myself 40cm of new zipper as i pulled the slider off by accident when sewing it into a new project. I don't have a lot of money so its saved me money. thank you. the Fork is my new best sewing notion ::)
Really helpful! Especially ther repetitive nature of her approach. Helped me stay on task (with patience) until I was able to "wiggle" the zipper head on. Thank you so much.
I was about to call this trick worthless because it wasn't working with my zippers but after several tries, it actually worked! Wow, thank you for this neat trick!
I worked in a store that sold zipper by the yard and I never got a zipper pull onto a zipper tape as fast as you in the 6 years I was there. I would have killed to be able to do this as easily. I loved your tips and THANK YOU.
Great Video. Thank you. Last week I saw a similar video with the fork and clamp, but your explanation of where the tines actually slot in on the zipper slide is the first time I’ve seen that explained, so it makes sense why my technique wasn’t successful as the fork I was using definitely do not conform as you explained! Thank you.
I can't believe your fork trick works!!! Thank you so much! Had to bend a fork to get to three tines, but it works. I was struggling with getting one side on and then not getting the other on! Reading to take it to a repair place to have it fixed. Success!
This has got to be the tip of the century! thank you so much zipper lady - I already had "the tummy" and I was so happy to find a 3 tine fork in my drawer. It didn't take me long to put all my zipper pulls onto my continuous tape and I am truly away laughing. Thanks again!
Thank you so much! My backpack that I've been carrying for almost 5 years now and the zipper broke, I thought I would have to buy a new one because looking on RUclips I couldn't find anybody that helped me with the problem I had, until I saw this video, and it worked perfectly! now I can keep my backpack and use it like always.
Very nice trick ! Thank you ! I do zipper head insertions without taking down the zipper on many tipes of clothing and bags, it can get very annoying and hard ! ..pays well because it-s cheaper than replacing the whole zipper. Your trick can prove useful sometimes!
With much sadness and a few tears, I was getting ready to throw my favorite beach bag away because the zipper fell off and I couldn’t get it back on. This did the trick and I am forever grateful I don’t have to part with my beloved bag. Many thanks!!!
Thank you! I’ve been fighting these pulls, and your video made it so easy! Met you at Sew Expo in Puyallup two years ago. Looking forward to in person Expo next year!
I came over to thank you for this video! I bought a greenhouse with a plastic cover. The zipper completely separated, and because of the size of the greenhouse, a replacement cover isn't available. I was able to put it back together and then I superglued the top so it doesn't come apart again. Thanks! :)
Finally! A tutorial that shows the whole process ‘close up’. All this time I wasn’t putting the fork tines at the proper place on the zipper head. Thank you!
Thank you Zipper lady .... you've solved an 'unsolvable' problem that I've experienced for decades ... how to get the 'Pull' back onto my zippers. OMG so simple ... use a third hand and just jiggle! EPIC!
This seems so cool. Thanks for sharing. You make it look so easy. Someone suggested this trick once but I was not sure about it. I do it somewhat differently but I'd love to do it this way. 😍😍😀
Oh Thank you so much. Your fork and wiggly method saved my day and my backpack. Fixed and jiffy, caveat: I inserted the zipper head upside down, and now, zipper slides down and closes, this is great also, works!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Oh ZipperLady, you explained this so well, SO glad I found your videos. I'm replacing the pull for a 220" zipper on a mattress topper cover, and I didn't think i would be able to pull it off, was looking at replacement covers that cost 5X what the foam topper did (eons ago). Now all I have to do is apply what you demo'd to my situation. Now to set aside time to view AAALLLLLLL Zipper Lady Videos. 😸
omg thank you soooooooo much, i nearly threw my real of zip down the garden, i was close to screaming & then...... you lovely lady made it work! you deserve a Nobel prize xx thank you
OMG! My life would have been totally different had I known there was a zipperlady out there in the world like 15 years ago! This was booth educational and funny

Thank you! I struggled for an hour with a zipper tab after watching a different video! Then I googled "I can't get my zipper tab on my zipper by the yard" and this video popped up! It's all finished...took me 1 minute.
Thank you so much for this video. I just purchased zippers by the yard for the first time and am afraid I won’t be able to attach the pulls. I’m going to use your fork technique.
Wow! This is magic. I always have to struggle to get the slider on 2 occasions that I tried that I have to give up using continuous zipper. But now I will try this method and I hope it works for me. Thanks very much for this tutorial.
Oh my goodness...I got a small purse with a one sided zipper. I wanted to understand how they did it...thank you for sharing this as you have answered my question. Love your fork!
Valoro todos esos talentos,y el precioso tiempo que nos dan para enceñarnos lo que no lo sabemos todo.BENDICIONES de dios para todos. Los felicito. Gracias 🍀
you are so smart I bought zipper and pulls for a ripped tent with a broken zipper thank you for the best idea as to how to get the zipper head on the zipper. I have taken zippers out and put a new on in stuff including boots and coats.
BWTH..!!!! For the light of me, I could NEVER get a zipper head on for myself!! The Darn thing Beats the HECK out of me😠😠 I was just at my variety store today and asked one of the sales girls for this Very assistance. THANK YOU. 👐 I SHALL TRY THIS YAYYYYYY👏👏👏👏

I used to spend a lot of time trying to get the pulls on. Your idea is GENIUS! Muchas gracias! Now the cushion covers will be finished faster!
You are the first one that worked after watching over 20 videos on how to replace the zipper pull. Thank you!
A quote I'll never forget for magically fixing zippers is "give it a little jiggle" - worked like a charm! Thank you Zipper Lady!

Hi! I think the difference between my videos & others on youtube is that I have been the Zipper Lady since 1991! YEARS of trying to figure this out!
Wahoo!! Almost gave up - then found this. Phew! Might survive zippers after all. Thank you so much for posting this!!

loved this trick! thanks!
May the fork be with you....
Best demo on fork as third hand installing zips. And you added a brief demo on the correct zipper heads for different teeth/coils.
Thank you! The bigger sizes are easy, even without the fork. #3 is the most difficult.
I came over to thank you for this video! I bought a greenhouse with a plastic cover. The zipper completely separated, and because of the size of the greenhouse, a replacement cover isn't available.

Amazing! After years of struggling I found how to do it without swearing and nearly being in tears! Thank you ! 👍
