DIY No-Sew Pouch:
What you'll need:
- 1 piece of "6x10" Fabric

Steps:
1. Fold the 6x10 fabric in half BACKWARDS, so it's like two pieces of 3x5 fabrics, but connected.

3. Turn it outside-in.

You are Done with the pouch! To close the pouch up after things are put inside it, use a ribbon to tie up the excess fabric.

  • Travel-sized pack of tissues
  • Travel-sized tooth brush

  • Feminine Products of your choice
Beauty:
  • Makeup +brushes of choice (Don't bring tons of makeup +brushes though!)
  • Lip balm
