Broken Zipper Hack May Be the Solution to a Really Annoying Problem
If you've ever struggled with a broken zipper, you know how frustrating a fix can get. One tip to fix broken zippers has recently gone viral on social media and it may solve your zipper-woes forever.
I was today years old when I found out a fork can fix a broken zipper...
Summer showers are an everyday occurrence here in Acadiana, so rain jackets are an absolute must. With colder weather on the horizon, winter jackets will also become a regular thing for folks around Louisiana.
But zippers have always been finicky and tend to break on a regular basis.
Thankfully, a tip has gone viral on social media and it shows how you can easily fix a broken zipper with a simple kitchen fork.
Just put the metal zipper piece on the middle two prongs of the fork and align the zipper tracks.
This allows you to use both hands on the jacket and simply guide the tracks into the zipper. Once they are lining up correctly, just take it off of the fork and VOILA!
