A package for containing and displaying elongate articles includes an elongate receptacle with an open end and a closed end. The receptacle has a sleeve disposed and sized for slidable movement over a portion of the elongate receptacle. The sleeve has an open end portion and a closed end portion that are connected by a hinge. The sleeve is disposed on the elongate receptacle and slidably moveable from a first position wherein the closed end of the sleeve substantially obstructs the open end of the receptacle, a second position wherein the hinge is disposed beyond the open end of the receptacle and the closed end portion of the sleeve is selectively moveable about the hinge so that when the open end portion of the sleeve is slidably returned toward the first position the closed end portion of the sleeve engages an outside surface of the elongate portion thereby forming a projection, so that when the package is placed on a horizontal surface so that the closed end of the receptacle and the sleeve closed end engage the horizontal surface, the open end of the receptacle is elevated above the closed end of the receptacle, thereby displaying and improving the accessibility of the elongate articles being contained within the receptacle.
