Abstract: A holder for securing a writing implement to a worn article is described. The holder includes a magnet fixed with the worn article and a magnetically-attractive base having a lower surface, an upper surface, and a peripheral edge. The upper surface includes two slots therein. The holder also includes a clamp portion having two ends adapted to engage the two slots of the upper surface of the base, and an elastomeric band securing the clamp portion to the slots of the upper surface of the base that retains the writing implement. The writing implement may be inserted between the clamp piece and the base, thereby pushing the ends of the clamp portion away from, but not completely out of, the slots of the upper surface of the base. The base, writing implement, clamp portion, and elastic band are magnetically attachable to the worn article with the magnet.
Abstract: The present device is a reusable bag for laundry and laundry hangers. The reusable bag includes an enclosure made from a flexible web material having an open end and a closed end. The open end has a closure means, while the closed end includes an aperture adapted to receive a portion of each laundry hanger therethrough. With the open end of the enclosure facing upward in a hamper configuration, dirty laundry may be collected and, when the bag is full, the open end of the enclosure may be selectively closed with the closure means. The reusable bag may be transported to a laundry cleaning facility by carrying with a handle strap, and returned with clean laundry hanging on the laundry hangers inside the enclosure. The closed end of the enclosure may be facing upward in a garment bag configuration for protecting the clean laundry.
