A one piece beverage insulator holder in the form of a beverage container holder with an open top and an expanded area support base that is die cut from a sheet of insulative foam either open cell or closed cell laminated with a surface vinyl film. The one piece beverage insulator die cut pattern is in the form of a main body portion that, when the ends are tape fastened together and a can is being held thereby, assumes the shape of a cylinder. There is a bottom projection from an edge of the main body portion that has an interconnect shank having two opposite side cutouts extending into the main body portion. The bottom projection has a generally rounded portion, approximately the size and shape of a can bottom held in the holder, with a flat edge surface on the opposite side from the interconnect shank. Toward the outer edges of the main body portion there are two additional cutouts duplicating the two shank opposite side cutouts leaving two mirror image tabs that as the body portion ends are taped together the two tabs are taped together and to the flat edge surface by an extension of the tape used to tape the body portion ends together. Thus there is provided a collapsible can holder having a bottom that is drawn up within the space of the body portion such that the bottom edges thereof are generally coplanar with the bottom surface of the holder bottom to provide increased stabilized support from supporting surfaces the can holding insulated beverage holder may be placed on.

A fold-up insulative beverage container holder with an open top and a stabilizing support base comprising: a sheet form of insulative material with a substantially rectangular body portion that when transverse ends thereof are fastened together and a cylindrical beverage container is held thereby assumes the shape of a cylinder; a bottom projection from the rectangular body portion that when assembled in the finished holder forms a center bottom portion fastened at two opposite sides to said rectangular body portion that is collapsible from the cylindrical state to a flattened state when a beverage container is removed from said holder; and with said center bottom portion sized and connected to said rectangular body portion to be drawn to a position within said rectangular body portion as it assumes a cylindrical shape with insertion of a cylindrical beverage container therein such that bottom edge surface means of said rectangular body portion derive stabilizing support from any planar support surface the holder holding a beverage container is placed on; wherein said sheet form of insulative material is a die cut sheet of insulative material that is a one sided smooth plastic surface laminated sheet of insulative foam; the one sided smooth plastic surface of said die cut sheet form of insulative material is to the outside of said insulative beverage container holder; said one sided smooth plastic surface is a vinyl laminated surface on said sheet form of insulative material; said foam faces the inside of said holder and said smooth outer plastic surface is a media for printing; where the transverse ends of said rectangular body portion are held together as a seam by a seam tape; said bottom projection from said rectangular body portion includes, an interconnect shank positioned between two opposite side cutouts in said rectangular body portion; and a generally rounded disk like portion approximately the size and area of a beverage container the holder is designed to hold; and wherein said rectangular body portion also includes two additional cutouts near the transverse ends ends of said rectangular body portion defining two mirror image tabs that together when said transverse ends of said rectangular body portion are held together form a connective counterpart of said shank connectable to the opposite side of said generally rounded disk like portion from the connection thereof to said shank.
