Sew a Handy Lip Balm Holder with Flap – Free Pattern & Tutorial


Keep your lip balm within reach and never lose another tube in the bottom of your bag again! This simple and practical lip balm key fob with a flap is the perfect beginner sewing project and makes a thoughtful handmade gift, too.


Designed with a secure flap and snap closure, this lip balm holder attaches easily to your keys, purse, or backpack using a lobster clasp or key ring. The compact design ensures your lip balm stays clean and easy to find—no more digging through pockets!


This free pattern and step-by-step tutorial from AppleGreen Cottage walks you through the process with clear instructions and helpful photos. You’ll only need a few fabric scraps, some interfacing, a snap or Velcro, and basic sewing supplies. The project is beginner friendly and perfect for scrap-busting.


Why You’ll Love It:


  • Great for beginners - fun to sew for all ges!

  • Uses small amounts of fabric

  • Makes a fast, functional gift

  • Includes printable pattern piece


Make one (or a dozen!) in your favorite prints, and coordinate with other accessories like key fobs, coin pouches, or mini wallets!
