Climbing chalk bag turned chair bag, help please!

Hello!! So pre disability I was a climber, and I recently found this unused chalk bag I won at a comp awhile ago, and I thought it would make a good wheelchair bag. It fits my phone or water bottle perfectly but I want to make sure I attach it right.

These are the best pictures I got of what I think would be the best place…? I haven’t tested it in the real world as I want to decorate the bag cuz the color kinda sucks imo. Do you guys think the way I attached it will be ok? For the pic under my chair, I also included a duplicate with a line drawn over to help you see the strap since it’s pretty dark.

Also, I just used the belt strap that it came with, so if y’all know of an attachment product that could work better with my little bag, I’m open to suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

PS, if you don’t have any advice on the attachment problem, I’m accepting suggestions of what to do for my bag decorations too :) I’m gonna try to use paint but may use sewing/needlework if it doesn’t stick.

[Academic] Adaptive Clothing Experiences Survey (Adults 18+)

Hi everyone! I'm a graduate student at SCAD working with two classmates on a design project about how adults find, wear, and pass on clothes that work for their bodies.

We especially want to hear from people who have had trouble finding clothes that fit their needs, including disabled people, people with chronic illness, and caregivers who help someone get dressed. Anyone 18+ is welcome to respond.

The survey takes about 5-6 minutes and is fully anonymous. Leaving an email at the end is optional. Thank you!!
