Tissue holder

Abstract

A tissue holder is designed to provide tissues for users at the point of use, especially for those people who are mobile. The tissue holder may be used in multiple different ways. First, the tissue holder may adhere to a dashboard in a motor vehicle, close to the driver. This provides convenient access to the tissues with no or minimal distraction for the driver. Second, the tissue holder may snap with a ring, such as a metal ring, having a clasp or other attachment mechanism, onto items such as articles of clothing, book bags, purses, zippers, diaper bags, lanyards, belt loops and the like. Third, the tissue holder may attach around a user's wrist with an elastic band, hook and loop straps, or the like. Fourth, the tissue holder may be adhered to the inside of a purse or bag.
