Container Covering System

Abstract

A container covering system conceals the overlap between a container and a liner positioned within the container. The system includes a container having a bottom wall and a perimeter wall coupled to and extending upwardly from the bottom wall. A top edge of the perimeter wall defines an access opening into the container. A liner is removably positioned within the container. The liner has a size and shape to abut and cover an inner surface of each of the bottom wall and the perimeter wall. A sleeve is positionable around the container wherein the sleeve extends upwardly above the top edge of the perimeter wall. A top of the sleeve has an opening positioned therein. The opening extends around the top edge of the perimeter wall when the sleeve is positioned around the container.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A container covering system comprising:
 a container having a bottom wall and a perimeter wall coupled to and extending upwardly from said bottom wall, a top edge of said perimeter wall defining an access opening into said container;   a liner removably positioned within said container, said liner having a size and shape to abut and cover an inner surface of each of said bottom wall and said perimeter wall; and   a sleeve being positionable around said container wherein said sleeve extends upwardly above said top edge of said perimeter wall, a top of said sleeve having an opening positioned therein, said opening extending around said top edge of said perimeter wall when said sleeve is positioned around said container.   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising said sleeve tapering outwardly from said top of said sleeve to a bottom of said sleeve. 
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising said sleeve being spaced from said container when said sleeve is positioned around said container. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising said opening being bounded by a lip extending inwardly over said container. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 4 , further comprising said lip being arcuate. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising said container tapering inwardly from said top edge of said perimeter wall to said bottom wall. 
     
     
         7 . The systerm of  claim 1 , further comprising said sleeve extending upwardly from said bottom wall. 
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising a bottom of said sleeve being open. 
     
     
         9 . A container covering system comprising:
 a container having a bottom wall and a perimeter wall coupled to and extending upwardly from said bottom wall, a top edge of said perimeter wall defining an access opening into said container, said container tapering inwardly from said top edge of said perimeter wall to said bottom wall, said bottom wall being open, said opening being bounded by a lip extending inwardly over said container, said lip being arcuate;   a liner removably positioned within said container, said liner having a size and shape to abut and cover an inner surface of each of said bottom wall and said perimeter wall; and   a sleeve being positionable around said container wherein said sleeve extends from said bottom wall upwardly above said top edge of said perimeter wall, a top of said sleeve having an opening positioned therein, a bottom of said sleeve being open, said opening extending around said top edge of said perimeter wall when said sleeve is positioned around said container, said sleeve tapering outwardly from said top of said sleeve to a bottom of said sleeve, said sleeve being spaced from said container when said sleeve is positioned around said container.
