Abstract: A paint and palette caddy in the form of a case, which includes a hinged top with closures and a pull out drawer, which may be latched; under the top is a rack or tray having a number of sockets for holding paint cups by friction or indexing means and a number of slots for holding the paint cup caps; the upper area of the paint cups are slightly larger in dimension than the sockets; the drawer, when extended, provides a paint palette surface that may be covered with a disposable sheet so that the palette surface remains free from paint; the removable cups are sealed with an appropriate cap to provide an airtight seal and eliminate as much air space as possible between the surface of the paint and the cap; the cups may be removed from the case and stored in a freezer to preserve the paint for extended periods.
