Abstract: An apparatus and method for holding a container on the apparatus, whereby the container is adapted to include various liquids, including paint, and to automatically tilt when the liquids in the container are reduced to a pre-determined weight. The apparatus includes a top plate, a hinge assembly, and a bottom plate, whereby the top plate is hingedly coupled to the bottom plate by the hinge assembly. A leg extends outwardly away from the bottom plate, whereby the leg is coplanar with the bottom plate. A hook connected to a top end of a bungee cord extends from a top surface of the top plate, and retaining wall protrudes upwardly from the top plate, whereby the retaining wall extends around at least a portion of a perimeter of the top plate. The container is positioned on the top plate and at least partially enclosed by the retaining wall.
