Glue the fabric of the zipper to the wallet or bag, and then weave beads through it. But make sure you secure it safely. surprise Lol. tongue

I would suggest sewing it onto a piece of fabric that would act as an inner lining, and then sewing that into place on what should be the inside of the bag.

sew it on and threw the beads and super glue it so it wont fall off

I never did such a project, but I'd imagine you'd have to run a string through the top row of your bag and sew the zipper through it, maybe even cutting notches in the zipper's fabric to allow for the natural flow of beads. However, the entire thing doesn't sound that sturdy, so I'd suggest making a bag with a flap, button closure, or even lacing ribbon through the top instead.

you would probably have to sew it onto your project?
