First thing this morning, I hear two employees saying something about why I am so noisy when I walk. That was enough for me. I had been planning to do this for several pairs of booties and shoes. It's those darn jingling zipper pulls.

I thought I would quickly share my simple solution to quieting the annoying jingle. I cut a small piece of self adhesive foam, just long enough to cover most of the back of the pull. I then cut a notch at one end to go around the pull attachment. I am sure you could use any kind of soft foam or even heavy tape that will stick to the back of the zipper pull without sticking to the zipper. I used a left over piece of Foot Petals Strappy Strips. It worked perfectly. the foam can't be seen from the other side of the zipper.
Bakersfield is in that weird time of year when it's warm one day, and chilly the next. Mid 70's yesterday and back up to mid 90's by tomorrow. I live in a land of two Season's. We usually skip Spring and Autumn.
I am two hours away from a glorious 3-day weekend.
Who loves Athleta? I certainly do!
Anthro and a bit of Athleta Sister Love,
