Abstract

A device for receiving and holding a plurality of objects comprises a main body having a plurality of chambers defined therein and a plurality of resilient tabs attached to or integral with the main body and spaced about a perimeter of the main body. Each chamber has an open top end and is adapted to receive at least one object via its open top end. Each tab is adapted to support the device on a top rim of a bucket such that the main body is elevated off a floor of the bucket. Each tab is adapted to flex inward toward a longitudinal axis of the main body when a downward force is applied to the main body such that the main body and the tabs move downward into the bucket until the main body contacts the floor of the bucket.
