Abstract: An artificial vine, ornamental in appearance and form, arranged for carrying articles, where the latter, as a doll, for example, is selectively stored and removed from a pod which forms part of the artificial vine. The pods, which are also selectively removable from the stem of the vine, are each slitted so that, when open, a receiving cavity is presented. Opening may be accomplished by the use of a flexible material which resumes a closed position after release of flexing or, on the other hand, material which is readily movable from a closed to an opened condition, and conversely. In any event, whatever material is used should compliment the vine so as to present a total ornamental effect.
