Just a correction: It’s “Filipino” and not “Philippino.”
I love the juice box wallets. I first saw one of those back when I was in high school and thought it was such a clever little thing.

I love the rice bags wallets, probably wayyyy smarter to make those yourself though. Just go to an Asian specialty market and sometimes they will have tons just to throw away. Also- in our shop we have some really durable Hempy’s wallets that would appeal more to men, and some Hempy’s organizers that are cool for the ladies

Check out these wallets, too. We help schools raise money with carton drives and/or donate contents of juice and milk cartons to shelters and food kitchens. These cartons are not recyclable in most of the country because of the wax lining, so milkmuny turns them into trashionable wallets.
