A portable storage container adapted with peel away wall portions so as to be positionable between a loading configuration and a tapered storage configuration is provided. The storage container may include a plurality of elongated wall portions connected along a periphery of a base portion. A plurality of detachable fasteners may be disposed along the longitudinal edges of each wall portion so that adjacent wall portions may be joined by attaching the detachable fasteners, forming the storage configuration, and peeled away by detaching the plurality of detachable fasteners, forming the loading configuration. The storage device may include an elevated base support having a supporting platform that maintains the base portion at a readily accessible position above the peeled-away wall portions in the loading configuration.

A containment device that converts between three different configurations or forms and includes a multilayer base. The forms include: 1) a mat or work surface that has a raised lip or edge structure that contains items on the mat or work surface; 2) a small volume bag or flexible container for holding the items inside, where the lip is gathered or compacted, e.g., by a drawstring, to form an annulus from the lip; and 3) a larger-volume, cylindrical-shaped bag, which may be used as a shopping bag. The cylindrical-shaped bag may be stored between the layers of the base when the device is in the mat configuration or the drawstring bag configuration, and the lip may be stored between the layers of the base when the device is in the cylindrical-shaped bag configuration.

A quick formable tote bag includes a retainer and a fabric substrate having a length of between about two feet to six feet and a width between about two feet and six feet, and having a first plurality of grommets spaced apart along a perimeter of a first side of the fabric substrate, a second plurality of grommets spaced apart along a perimeter of a second side the fabric substrate, wherein the first plurality of grommets are removably disposed adjacent one another to receive the retaining member and has a first end disposed therethrough and the second plurality of grommets are removably disposed adjacent one another to receive a second end of the retaining member disposed therethrough, and when so disposed causes the fabric substrate to form a tote bag.

A foldable bottle holder (10, 100, 106, 110) includes a foldable wall (12), a sheet (14), and a closure (16). The foldable wall (12) includes a first portion (20) and a second portion (22) that are connected by a hinge (24). A first portion (32) of the sheet (14) is secured to the foldable wall (12), and a second portion (34) of the sheet (14) cooperates with the first portion (20) of the foldable wall (12) to define an opening (36) of the bottle holder (10) so that the sheet (14) forms a bottom wall (38) of the bottle holder (10) connected to the second portion (22) of the foldable wall (12) and so that the foldable wall (12) and the sheet (14) together form side walls (39) of the bottle holder (10) and the opening (36). The closure (16) selectively retains the first portion (20) and the second portion (22) of the foldable wall (12) in a minimized condition of the foldable bottle holder (10) and in open state of the closure (16) allows for a user to carry a bottle (50) in the foldable holder (10).
