Abstract: A paint tray having storable carrying handles. The paint tray is of generally standard configuration, having a ramped bottom surface leading toward a more rectangular reservoir area. The non-uniform distribution of paint in the tray typically makes it difficult to carry or maneuver. Accordingly, a pair of handles is pivotally mounted to the paint tray, one near the front end and another near the rear end of the tray. The handles may be rotated into interlocking engagement above the paint tray in a transporting position, or may be rotated and slid into engagement with respective ends of the tray in a storage position.
