ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for suspending utensils over a sink comprises a holding member coupled to a stabilizer. The holding member is configured to retain utensils, and the stabilizer comprises a hook member having a contact surface for engaging the back of a sink faucet. The holding member also has a support surface for resting against a side wall or top edge of the sink so that the stabilizer when engaged on the sink faucet in cooperation with the support surface and the force of gravity maintain the apparatus above the bottom surface of the sink. In this way, the holding member may suspend utensils such as kitchen implements including dish racks, flatware, containers, and cutting boards above the bottom surface of the sink.
