Abstract: A retention assembly for a hollow tubular decorating roller comprising a fixed mount member that is securable in use to a roller frame. The fixed mount member includes a first primary support formation and a first retention formation that extends radially beyond the first primary support formation. The retention assembly also includes a separable mount member that is selectively couplable with the fixed mount member. The separable mount member includes a second primary support formation and a second retention formation that extends radially beyond the second primary support formation. The first and second primary support formations are received, in use, by a respective end of a hollow tubular decorating roller. The first and second retention formations cooperate with one another while the separable mount member is coupled with the fixed mount member to in use retain a hollow tubular decorating roller therebetween.
