I saw a tutorial of a snap coin purse using 2 tape measure section (the retractable type) it looked easy, I don't recall where it was but it shouldn't be too hard to figure it out

really liking these cute little snap pouches...where can I purchase the plastic of metal frames??? Crafty Gemini has a great tutorial....appreciate any info....

I got my frames on e-bay. Not sure if amazon has them. Some places like JoAnns or Micheals might have them but they are like $3 each. I got a set of 5 for $4 and they had different colored pearl balls on them. Came from China with free shipping. The snap pouches are different than the metal framed coin purses. Snap pouches are cute and easy to make also,and you can use a cut up old metal measuring tape.
