A few months back, I was lucky enough to be jetting off to the sunny shores of Mexico with a few friends. As we were meandering through the airport, we stumbled upon these nifty little fabric lip balm holders – and they were clip-on! It was love at first sight. And me being me, my first thought was, I could make one of those.

I came right home, and to my delight, discovered that making these little wonders is a breeze. All you need are a few scraps of fabric, and you can craft your very own. Just imagine the convenience – no more frantic searches through your bag for the elusive chapstick.

Here we go!

And there you have it!

Say goodbye to emptying your entire bag in search of a tiny tube of lip balm and hello to smooth, moisturized lips without the stress. (Marie Kondo and Heidi Klum will be so proud of you.)

Happy Sewing!
