Abstract: A handle for use in carrying and pouring from a plastic bottle comprises a single two-ended piece of flat flexible material possessing at one end means for attachment to a bottle neck and at the other end means for attachment to the bottle bottom. Between the two ends of material is formed a hand hold. The handle attaches to the bottle neck by use of two partially overlapping, nonconcentric openings the first of which slips over the bottle neck and collar and the second of which then snaps around the neck when the handle is tugged. The bottom employs a pair of integral stabilizing tabs extending inwardly of a bottle encompassing ring which upon insertion over the top of the bottle and movement downwardly over the bottle periphery extend both upwardly or one upwardly and one downwardly with respect to the ring, thus firmly gripping a lower part of the bottle.
