This great accessory makes it so much easier to take your water with you anywhere. Just clip it to your purse, diaper bag, belt loop, anywhere really and go! Tested and approved for long shopping trips and even longer checkout lines!
I've been creating these for craft shows for years and using them myself for even longer. These were great when I had babies and toddlers and literally ran around feeling like the good Lord didn't give me enough hands to function. Being able to strap a baby bottle to my purse for a quick run to the store helped out a lot too!
Mind you this pattern was written in 2018 and published in 2019 when my skills at photography(and a lot of other things) were quite lacking. I revamped the pattern to fit with my style just recently and decided to share it here on my blog for all of you. You can also purchase the ad free pattern with the new updates too.
