    Abstract: Container storage organizers are provided by an integral and preferably molded plastic shell having a profile defined by top panels and side panels of the shell, which side panels meet the top panels and extend to an open bottom. The profile provides a shape enabling one or more of the shells to be assembled in adjacent and preferably adjoining relationship. The top sides of the profile meet at an acute angle preferably about 90° while the sides are generally parallel, preferably having a slight taper so as to enable several shells to be stacked on top of another for ease of shipment and handling. One of the top panels has a plurality of side-by-side openings which receive the containers, such as cans, through lips which guide the cans into the shell so that they rest on a base to which the shell is attached, preferably by tabs which extend laterally from the lower edges of the side panels.
