Perfect and stylish way for on the go!
I always wanted a case that would hold my tampons and even a pad and be have it be discrete. Women dont always want to announce their time of the month. This way at least its a fashion forward way to go.

    I took some of the extra fabric for the inside and added it so my pockets had more room to actually fit about 6 tampons in the case.
    To make the pockets all i did was place a tampon under it and meaured how much room i would need.
    I then bunched a little of that fabric and sewed lines connecting the inside fabric and the pockets.

    For the outside i took a hot glue gun and glued some ribbon to tie it shut. This way i can easily change the ribbon if it ripped or i wanted to add a little more color.
    Finally it's finished. Not only can you just fold it any way you want but it also looks good rolled up.
