I've improvised my own bandages many times, but it always involves cutting or shaping existing bandaids. Like when I hurt the tip of my finger, which I often do: you take a normal bandaid, and make a cut halfway down the length of each sticky part. Then when you fold the pad over the tip of your finger you can take the two little legs you've created and swing them to wrap around your finger. It stays on, and you don't have to waste a second bandaid just to hold the first one on. Or sometimes I'll cut off one sticky part entirely and stick it along the short side, so the resulting bandaid is V-shaped. Perfect for in-between-the-fingers cuts.
