Abstract
The present invention is composed of a sack for a bar of soap made from soft polyester netting tube, one end being closed or sealed, the opposite end being open and adapted to be closed to retain the bar of soap therein. The open end is adapted to be closed and a loop of synthetic material is attachable thereto. Encompassing the loop is a slidable bead to secure the loop to the arm of the user or to any other object within the confine of the bath or shower. A second embodiment of the closure as part of the present invention uses a disc with an annular groove which encompasses the aforesaid closure adaptor for the netting tube.
