Lip Balm Container Accessory

In this DIY guide, we'll show you how to create a practical and stylish fabric lip balm holder with a key ring attachment. Here's what you'll need:

  • Fabric scraps (cotton or other sturdy fabric)
  • Sewing needle and thread or a sewing machine
  • Key ring or split ring
  • Scissors
  • (Optional) Snap buttons, decorative embellishments

Cutting and Assembling

  1. Cut two pieces of fabric to a size that can comfortably hold a standard lip balm tube. A size of about 4 inches tall by 2.5 inches wide should suffice.
  2. Place the fabric pieces right sides together (the patterned or "front" sides facing each other).

Sewing the Pouch

  1. Sew around three sides of the fabric pieces, leaving one short side open for inserting the lip balm.
  2. Turn the pouch right side out through the open side.

Finishing

  1. Fold the top open edge inward and sew it closed or attach a snap button to keep the lip balm secure.
  2. Create a small fabric loop or tab (about 1 inch long) at the top or side seam for attaching the key ring.
  3. Attach the key ring through the fabric loop.

Optional Decoration

  • Add embellishments such as buttons, beads, or fabric paint to personalize your holder.

This project can be done by hand sewing or with a sewing machine, and it’s quick and beginner-friendly.

For more inspiration, you can crochet a lip balm holder with an attached loop for a keychain by creating a small pouch and crocheting a loop to attach the key ring. Alternatively, you can use a snap or button for closure, and attach charms or beads if desired for decoration.

Such holders are perfect for backpacks, lunchboxes, or keychains, making them both practical and giftable. If you want more specific patterns or video guidance, YouTube tutorials on crocheting such holders or sewing patterns on Pinterest are helpful resources.

Once completed, slide a key ring onto the ribbon tab and you're ready to go! Enjoy your new fabric lip balm holder.
