Based On The Tampon Dispenser
This is based on the tampon dispenser project found here on cutoutandkeep. I don't use tampons, but I loved the project so I decided to make a pad dispenser.

Such a cute idea. Imma def do this for mine. I hate the bags that pads come in, they rip and once you open them everything falls out.Tis a great solutionHappy

OOOO... I don't get my period, but this is great. I used to keep my pads in a little basket when I had my own bathroom. Before that when I shared with my brother they where in a little box, as seeing them freaked him out. Ha ha boys... anyway this is a great idea. Pads, or Tampons(which I never used, I find it gross.) You should call Kotex. These should be on the market. They should sell ones you could refill, or that you can throw away(filled with pads/tampons)
