ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for separately holding a multiplicity of each of several different sized elastic bands such as rubber bands. The apparatus includes a body having a multiplicity of storage regions, each of which has a storage slot. Further, the circumferences of at least two of the storage slots in different storage regions are different from one another. More specifically, a storage region is formed by disposing a first storage slot having a first circumference between two other restraining or confining ridges or regions, each of which ridges or regions has a larger circumference than the first region. Different sized elastic bands are then wrapped about the body in the different storage regions. The circumference about the body in a storage slot of a particular storage region which is appropriately sized to hold a particular elastic band is at least as large as the circumference of the inside surface of the elastic band. As such, the elastic band will be stretched and will, thereby, be under tension when it is placed on the body in that storage region.
