ABSTRACT:
A cover for articles, such as wastebasket liners and tissue boxes, has a rigid end substantially coextensive with a first end of an article to be covered. A soft tubular pleated sidewall has a first end secured to the rigid end of the cover. The sidewall is sufficiently pliant to permit the cover to be folded into a flattened configuration. A closure extends around the second end of the sidewall to pull it over the periphery of the second end of the article and retain the cover on the article. The opening at the second end of the sidewall is of variable size to permit the cover to be installed on the article. The closure may be a band of elastic. The cover is easily folded for shipment and display and may be made from washable materials to be machine washable. The provision of a rigid end gives the cover the neat appearance of a stiffer type of cover when the cover is in use. The rigid end preferably comprises a pair of members secured together by adhesive with one end of the sidewall extending therebetween to secure the sidewall to the rigid end. The cover may be reversible.
