It should be understood there are modifications and variations of the invention that are too numerous to be listed but that all fit within the scope of the invention. Also, singular words should be read as plural and vice versa and masculine as feminine and vice versa, where appropriate, and alternative embodiments do not necessarily imply that the two are mutually exclusive.

(8) As best illustrated in FIG. 4 the holder assembly 20 may include a first ring 22 and a second ring 24. The first ring 22 may have a ring shape. It also may be suitable for the first ring 22 to have a rectangular-frame shape, a triangular-frame shape, or any other suitable shape. The second ring 24 may be a mirror image of the first ring. The first ring 22 and the second ring 24 may be an annealed wire. It also may be suitable for the first ring 22 and the second ring 24 to be galvanized wire, or any other wire presenting flexibility and resistance. The first ring 22 and the second ring 24 may be a cylindrical metallic element in a closed loop. It also may be suitable for the first ring 22 and the second ring 24 to be a rectangular or triangular metallic element in a closed loop.

(9) The first ring 22 may include a first bottom portion and a first top portion. The second ring 24 may include a second bottom portion and a second top portion. The first bottom portion of the first ring 22 may be coupled to the second bottom portion of the second ring 24. In a preferred embodiment the first bottom portion and the second bottom portion are welded together. The first bottom portion of the first ring 22 extends from a central portion of the first ring 22 to a bottommost end thereof. The second bottom portion of the second ring 24 extends from a central bottom portion to a second ring bottommost end. The second ring 24 may be perpendicular to the first ring 22. The first top portion and the second top portion may be separated in an open configuration and in abutting contact in a closed configuration.

(10) The cover assembly 40 may include a cover 42 defined by a left portion and a right portion sewn together by means of sewings 44. In a preferred embodiment the cover 42 may be made of wool and cotton. It also may be suitable for the cover 42 to be made of fleece, or any other fabric.
