ABSTRACT:
A utility tray provided for attachment to a wall comprises a horizontal support surface having an upwardly protruding lip attached to and extending above the peripheral edge of the support surface. Two adjacent support arms extend upwardly from a straight portion of the peripheral edge, each support arm ending in a downwardly facing hook extending away from the support surface. A pair of substantially parallel horizontal fingers protrude from the straight portion of the peripheral edge, each finger comprising a number of frangible sectors arranged end to end. One or more sectors can be easily snapped off of the finger so that the finger fits between the horizontal support surface and the wall such that the horizontal support surface maintains a horizontal orientation. Further, a slot opening in at least one of the support arms is shaped to engage an attachment prong of a removable clamp. The clamp is made from a flexible material and, when inserted into the slot opening, is positioned favorably to allow placement of a drinking cup into the clamp, the bottom of the drinking cup being supported upon the horizontal support surface.
