The downwardly recessed center portion defines an upwardly opening recess in which to receive the lower end of a paint can and the tray member includes widely spaced apart depending threaded shanks from which a clamp bar is supported through the utilization of wing nuts threadedly engaged on the shanks. The tray member may be slid into position on the horizontal shelf of a step ladder and removably clamp engaged with the shelf by tightening the wing nuts in order to clamp the shelf between the clamp bar and the underside of the tray member. In addition, the upper surface of the downwardly recessed central portion of the tray member as well as the upper surfaces of the tray member disposed about the downwardly recessed central portion of the tray member are covered with magnetized panels, whereby ferris material items placed thereon will be magnetically held in position on the tray member.
