This is a long & skinny going out bag.  It is 7 inches tall, 12 inches long (14 inches at the base) and 3 inches wide.  It has a high quality magnetic snap and a metal frame that overlaps like an old fashioned Doctor’s bag.  It is secure and very durable.
 
The flower is made from newspaper that has been treated to become stiff and durable.  The idea is that reading the news right now is so agonizing, you might as well just shred it and make something from it.
