    Question what do you find you need most?

    I was thinking about making my own carrying case (I used to make purses and bags that I sold in various places) and I have a little bag I used for my ipod, but it's occupied!

    The problem is, I am so new at vaping, that I haven't yet figured out what the ideal bag would have... ie: how many pockets, for what, zippers, ya-da ya. I know I want something little, so I can toss it in my purse, but I also want it to have a little handle incase I don't want to put it in my purse.

    So lady veteran vapors...

    If you could make the ideal little carry bag, what could you not live without?

    start a business making them and advertise here. more options are needed for portable storage.

    features

    - easy access (velcro or flip top) for fully-assembled e-cigs
    - extra atomizers and full cartridges or cartomizers
    - empty cartridges or cartomizes
    - tweezer, syringe (for those that fill way), and extra 1-2 batteries
    - 1-2 ejuice dropper bottles - 3-10 ml

    if you need anything more than this, use a camera bag or portable diabetes bag. they got lots of pockets and compartments. the goal is for something to throw in a purse or pocket.

    materials

    - nylon canvas, vinyl, leather, velvet, etc.
    - padded, foam, support, or other inserts and liners
    - velcro, zipper, flip-top, open access
    - elastic bands, dividers

    jpod for juicyliquid.com carries 3 6-ml bottles.

    J-Pod w/ 6mL Droppers [13JPOD] - $6.99 : JuicyLiquid.com, DIY E-Liquid and Accessories!

    it would have been nice if they sewed two rows of smaller straps on each side. you could fit a bottle and several carts in it on keychange.

    I feel the standard sets maybe can meet the need. But the manufactur still need to develop new product. Waht do you think of it ?

    sets need to meet more flexible storage and easy access for fully assembled e-cigs, with velcro or open access... and need to make better use of the space.

    Henry: yes, I batted the idea around for a few days. But in all honesty, I stink at the business end of things. I am a total artsy kind of gal. That is why I do better selling from little gift shops or randomly. I make one-of-a-kind items with whatever interesting material I can find to use. The last store I sold at would just let me know when she needed more, and I would send them (or special order) Trying to fill the niche (that is obviously needed here) would be a bit daunting to my whismical self.
    However, you have given me some great ideas! TY!

    Key: ah yes! Napkins. I thought about a small pouch for a small cloth, but disposable napkins would probably be more useful..or wipes.

    Jemmy: yes there is a lack for those that want to carry their supplies in something other than a tackle box from Wallyworld. I like the new cases that Vapeboxz has come up with, but I am a purse/bag freak. Also prefer something more unusual.

    Of course it needs to be practical too, and I have yet to discover all the things I will need while out and about.

    leannebug: Have you tried Etsy? Then you could post whatever you felt in the mood to make.

    Yes, I have looked into Etsy. It seems to be a great place (better for handmade items than ebay, certainly) and I have purchased a few items too. Love anything handmade.

    Just still looking for my "niche" I suppose. I do it more as a hobby, and since my art interests are varied, it can sometimes complicate things. (ie: should I make this? should I make that?) lol

    <.......... a bit scatterbrained


    but as to the pouch for supplies, I'm still trying to find out what are the most important featuress. For instance: I was at the grocery the other day (stealth vaping) when suddenly I realized I had juice all over my hand. Now, if I had some napkins or wipes with me, hey no prob, but I didn't... so I had to walk around the store with my hand sticking out, till I could find something to clean up with. These are the things I don't know, will eventually discover, but was hoping to "pick the brains" of those in the know! I like to be prepared!
