yes, half the zipper tape would be left over... but i saw the cutest flowers made by winding the zipper tape with the coil on the top side. lots of ideas here https://www.google.com/search?q=how+...utf-8&oe=utf-8

Some of you posting are not understanding the issue -- you use half the zipper, as in one side of the tape, to make a bag. That leaves you with the entire length of the zipper, one side of it only, unused. Since I would never use a flower rosette, that would be waste for me.
Fortunately, it is possible to get extra pulls, and it can be a fun design element to mix and match the color of the pull with the tape/coil.

I buy all my zippers from Zipperstop.com in New York. They are a long standing family business and have been in their location for decades and generations. They have literally EVERYTHING. And the more you buy, the cheaper it gets.
