Adhesive cord cover

A system for decoratively covering a linear object, comprising:

• a linear object, said linear object selected from the group consisting of electrical cords, chandelier chains and pipes;
• a lengthwise strip of fabric, said lengthwise strip of fabric having a first widthwise edge, a second widthwise edge, a first lengthwise edge, a second lengthwise edge, an interior side and an exterior side,
• a first elastic strip hemmed along said first lengthwise edge of said strip of fabric, and a second elastic strip hemmed along said second lengthwise edge of said strip of fabric, said first and second elastic strips together providing said strip of fabric with a gathered configuration, and
• a pressure sensitive adhesive having a base side and a fastening side, said base side of said pressure sensitive adhesive adhered to said strip of fabric, said pressure sensitive adhesive positioned and configured to allow said fastening side of said pressure sensitive adhesive to be selectively adhered to said lengthwise strip of fabric substantially along said second lengthwise edge so that said first and second lengthwise edges overlap one another and are aligned generally parallel to one another to thereby form a tubular configuration, configured to envelope said linear object, said tubular configuration having a first open end formed along said first widthwise edge and a second open end formed along said second widthwise edge.

A system for decoratively covering a linear object, comprising:

• a linear object, said linear object selected from the group consisting of electrical cords, chandelier chains and pipes;
• a generally rectangular lengthwise strip of fabric, said lengthwise strip of fabric having a first widthwise edge, a second widthwise edge, a first lengthwise edge, a second lengthwise edge, an interior side and an exterior side,
• a first elastic strip hemmed along said first lengthwise edge of said strip of fabric, and a second elastic strip hemmed along said second lengthwise edge of said strip of fabric, said first and second elastic strips together providing said strip of fabric with a gathered configuration,
• a strip of pressure sensitive adhesive transfer tape, said pressure sensitive adhesive transfer tape having a base side and a fastening side, said base side of said pressure sensitive adhesive adhered to said interior side of said strip of fabric substantially along said first lengthwise edge, and
• a liner, said liner covering said fastening side of said pressure sensitive adhesive transfer tape to thereby assist in preserving adhesive properties of said pressure sensitive adhesive transfer tape, said liner selectively removable from said fastening side of said transfer tape to thereby allow said fastening side of said transfer tape to be selectively adhered to said exterior side of said strip of fabric substantially along said second lengthwise edge so that said first and second lengthwise edges overlap one another and are aligned generally parallel to one another to thereby form a tubular configuration configured to envelope said linear object, said tubular configuration having a first open end formed along said first widthwise edge and a second open end formed along said second widthwise edge.
