ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for packaging an object, and in particular a fragile object such as an earthenware flower pot, which utilizes first and second bands of flexible material encircling the object in substantially perpendicular, vertical planes. The first band lies under the second band in the areas where the bands cross and has an opening formed in the top portion thereof on either side of the overlying second band. A handle is provided which spans the portion of the second band between the openings and has enlarged ends each of which passes through and engages one of the openings in the first band. The bands are preferably identical and interchangeable, are preferably formed of an impact resistant material to protect fragile objects, and may be provided in a plurality of different sizes, the bands selected to package a particular object being the smallest sized bands which will encircle such object.
