The tissue holder was created by an 11 year old who was trying to make a difference in her community. Created on her serger, this holder has a pocket on the back side to hold hand sanitizer, chewing gum or other small items. Taylor made and sold several thousand of her tissue holders to raise money for the flood victims in South Louisiana. The bag is a take off on the tissue design. A portion of the sale of Taylor’s Bag & Tissue Holder goes to helping someone in need.
