I shared a tutorial before on how to make a clutch wallet with 2 credit card slots and a large pocket for notes, the middle gusseted compartment is able to hold a smartphone, this design is simply great for daily use. If you haven’t read it before, here’s the link to the tutorial ( Yvonne Clutch Wallet DIY )
We now have an upgraded version of that particular kisslock frame mentioned in that tutorial, it comes with a sided O ring, which allows you to add a wrist band for the wallet and brings even further functionality to it.
