A container apparatus having a label for grasping the container to which it is attached includes a receiving surface and a label partially affixed to the container. The label includes a first portion of filmic material affixed to the receiving surface for displaying printed matter and a second portion of filmic material extending outward from the receiving surface, the second portion of filmic material having two back-to-back layers forming a handle of sufficient length to allow grasping thereof with one's fingers. The label-handle further includes an apparatus for affixing a label to a container in a fashion whereby the label forms a handle for grasping the container. The apparatus for affixing includes a unit for receiving and holding a container and a unit for wrapping a length of filmic material around the container, the unit for wrapping adhering a first portion of the filmic material to a receiving surface of the container while leaving second and third back-to-back portions of the filmic material free of the bottle and extending outward therefrom such that the second and third back-to-back portions form a handle.
