Handbag or carrying case includes a retaining compartment for retaining objects which is defined by structure having a plurality of apertures extending from the compartment to an exterior thereof, and at least one snap fastener which snaps into a respective aperture to thereby be secured to the compartment defining structure. An object may be coupled to the snap fastener such that the object is secured to the structure defining the compartment. The position of the object is variable depending on which aperture the snap fastener snaps into, with the user selecting where to locate the object by selecting the location at which the snap fastener connected thereto will engage with the compartment defining structure.

1. A carrying case, comprising: compartment defining means for defining a retaining compartment for retaining objects, said compartment defining means including a plurality of apertures extending from said retaining compartment to an exterior of said compartment defining means;at least one snap fastener arranged to snap into a respective one of said apertures to thereby be secured to said compartment defining means; andcoupling means comprising at least a strap for coupling an object to said at least one snap fastener such that the object is secured to said compartment defining means via said coupling means and the position of the object is variable depending on which of said apertures said snap fastener engages, said strap having one end being unattached to said case. 2. The carrying case of claim 1, wherein each of said at least one snap fastener has first and second parts removably engageable with one another such that when engaged with each other through the respective one of said apertures, said snap fastener is secured to said compartment defining means, said coupling means coupling the object to said first part of said at least one snap fastener. 3. The carrying case of claim 2, wherein said first part of said snap fastener has a flange arranged to prevent passage of said first part through the respective one of said apertures in said compartment defining means and said second part has a flange arranged to prevent passage of said second part through said respective aperture in said compartment defining means. 4. The carrying case of claim 2, wherein said second part is colored. 5. The carrying case of claim 1, wherein said at least one strap each attached to a respective one of said at least one snap fastener and arranged to attach to the object such that the object is secured to said compartment defining means via said strap and said snap fastener. 6. The carrying case of claim 5, wherein said at least one strap is arranged to removably attach to the object. 7. The carrying case of claim 1, further comprising: a pair of elongate straps, each of said elongate straps having opposite end regions and at least two apertures, one proximate each of said end regions; andsnap fasteners arranged to attach said elongate straps to said opposed sides via aligning pairs of one of said apertures on said opposed sides and one of said apertures on said elongate straps, said snap fasteners being arranged to enable said elongate straps to be removable from engagement with said compartment defining means and positionable in different positions relative to said compartment defining means. 8. The carrying case of claim 1, wherein said compartment defining means comprise a base section defining a bottom of said compartment and a main body section including an annular portion, said apertures being formed on said annular portion. 9. A carrying case, comprising: compartment defining means for defining a retaining compartment for retaining objects, said compartment defining means including a plurality of apertures extending from said retaining compartment to an exterior of said compartment defining means; andobject attachment means for attaching an object to said compartment defining means in variable and different positions, each of said object attachment means comprising: a snap fastener arranged to snap into a respective one of said apertures to thereby be secured to said compartment defining means; andcoupling means comprising a strap for coupling an object to said snap fastener such that the object is secured to said compartment defining means via said coupling means and the position of the object is variable depending on which of said apertures said snap fastener engages, said strap having one end being unattached to said case. 10. The carrying case of claim 9, wherein said a strap attached to said snap fastener and arranged to attach to the object such that the object is secured to said compartment defining means via said strap and said snap fastener. 11. The carrying case of claim 10, wherein said strap is arranged to removably attach to the object. 12. The carrying case of claim 9, wherein said snap fastener has first and second parts removably engageable with one another such that when engaged with each other through the respective one of said apertures, said snap fastener is secured to said compartment defining means, said coupling means coupling the object to said first part of said at least one snap fastener. 13. The carrying case of claim 12, wherein said first part of said snap fastener has a flange arranged to prevent passage of said first part through the respective one of said apertures in said compartment defining means and said second part has a flange arranged to prevent passage of said second part through said respective aperture in said compartment defining means. 14. The carrying case of claim 12, wherein said second part is colored. 15. A kit which enables color-designation of objects for a carrying case, comprising: compartment defining means for defining a retaining compartment for retaining objects, said compartment defining means including a plurality of apertures extending from said retaining compartment to an exterior of said compartment defining means;a first part of a snap fastener;a plurality of second parts of said snap fastener, said first part and each of said second parts being removably engageable with one another with said first part facing the interior of said compartment defining means and said second part facing the exterior of said compartment defining means such that when engaged with each other through one of said apertures, said snap fastener is secured to said compartment defining means; andcoupling means comprising a strap for coupling an object to said first part of said snap fastener such that the object is secured to said compartment defining means via said coupling means and the position of the object is variable depending on which of said apertures said snap fastener passes through, said strap having one end being unattached to said case,each of said second parts of said snap fastener having a different color to thereby enable association of a color of said second part of said snap fastener visible from the exterior of said compartment defining means with the object retained in said compartment. 16. The kit of claim 15, wherein said strap attached to said first part of said snap fastener and arranged to attach to the object such that the object is secured to said compartment defining means via said strap and said snap fastener.
