Wearable tissue holder

Abstract

A wearable tissue holder includes a body defining an envelope, with the envelope having an unobstructed first opening constructed and arranged to always expose at least a portion of the tissue and allow the entirety of the tissue to be deployed from the envelope. At least one strap is coupled to the body so as to wrap at least partially around an appendage, such as the forearm, of the wearer. A fastener is used to secure the strap so that the tissue holder body can be secured to the wearer.
