Hat to Hem | Zipper to Lace Up | A Zipper Replacement Tutorial @HattoHem | Uploaded August 2019 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Did you buy a dress and it's just a little too tight or too loose? We've all been there. I know I've had to alter quite a few dresses for that very reason. So, by popular demand, here is my first official tutorial video! I'll show you the quick and easy way to replace a zipper with a lace up back using the Laceeis Corset kit! This whole process took less than an hour. (It took longer to records and edit the voice over!) I hope this video is helpful to you!
