Abstract: A combination paint tray and container therefore, wherein the tray is attached to the upper edge of one side of the container with the tray and the open end of the container forming an incline with respect to the upstanding sides of the container. The bottom of the tray has mounted thereon a hook adapted to mate with the rung of a ladder and the side of the container facing the bottom side of the tray includes an arm supported and adapted to be adjustably extended so that one end may be connected to the side of the container and the other end includes a hooked portion also adapted to be engaged with another rung of a ladder. The hooked portions on both the tray and the arm extending from the side of the container are formed to provide a positive engagement with the rungs of the ladder in a manner such that the tray and container are in a relatively secure position on the ladder.
