Abstract
A sleeve label for containers comprises a multi-function tab separated from the sleeve label by a seam generally parallel to the axis of the sleeve. The sleeve is made of a stretchable plastic with memory. The sleeve is stretched over the container and relaxed, securing the sleeve to the container. The tab may contain indicia. Alternative embodiments of the tab include a bottom seam to form a storage pocket and perforations to allow removal of the tab. A heat slit aperture in the tab forms a convenient carrying handle for the container.
