A holder for a beverage or drink container having an appearance suggestive of
a
high-heeled shoe comprises a base having a substantially planar lower surface and
an opposite upper surface containing a receptacle configured to slidably receive
the lower end portion of the container. An elongated handle is disposed adjacent
to the base, and includes an upper end disposed above the upper surface of the
base, and an opposite, substantially planar lower end disposed co-planar with the
lower surface of the base. The base is rigidly connected to the upper end of the
handle by an arcuate web. First, second and third straps are arranged on the holder
to capture the container in the holder and restrain it against lateral movement.
The holder can be manufactured inexpensively using a wide variety of manufacturing
techniques and a wide variety of strong, decorative materials.
