Abstract: A bottle holder for holding a bottle in an upright position. Regardless of the position in which the holder is placed, it will roll itself into an upright position. The upper portion of the holder has a bottle keeper for snugly holding a bottle, allowing one to use the bottle without removing it from the holder. The bottom portion of the holder is weighted and is much heavier than the top portion. Because the bottom portion is weighted, it will remain on the bottom and a bottle in the holder will remain upright. A flat portion on the bottom portion provides a place for the holder to rest. Because of the weight differential between the bottom and top portions, no matter how the bottle holder is set down, it will rock back to an upright position such that it will rest on the flat portion of the bottom portion.
