The posts are spaced interiorly from the peripheral edge of the upwardly facing surface wherein each post has an outwardly facing surface and an inwardly facing surface that is tapered outwardly from the top of the post to the bottom of the post. The articles are positioned between the inwardly facing surfaces of the posts. A cover is releasably securable to the planar wall of the base. The cover includes a top wall and a peripheral, downwardly extending wall formed to the outer periphery of the top wall. The peripheral wall is positioned adjacent the peripheral edge of the upwardly facing surface of the base and outwardly with respect to the posts of the base when securing the cover to the base.
