Abstract

Abstract A storage receptacle is formed by a length of material having opposed terminal ends and a substantially centrally positioned fold line, the length of material being foldable along the central fold line to create two substantially equal sections, each of the sections including one or more storage compartments formed therein. Each of the storage compartments is ideally provided with a closure flap, and fastening elements are interposed between the closure flap and the storage compartment thereby to permit the sealing of each of the storage compartments. Finally, other fastening elements are further provided in connection with the terminal ends of the length of material to permit the sections to be folded over and fastened together such that the entire receptacle may be stored about a support such as a belt.
