A paint bucket includes an upstanding continuous sidewall incorporating opposing sidewalls, and opposing front and rear walls. The rear wall has two first support panels each adjoining one of the opposing sidewalls, a central panel having a width and an upper end including an upper edge, and a lower concave end leading to an opposing lower edge adjoining a bottom wall of the paint bucket. A horizontal support panel, having a width equal to the width of the central panel, adjoins the upper edge of the rear wall and the upper edge of the central panel. Two second support panels each adjoin one of the first support panels, the central quadrilateral panel, and the horizontal support panel, and opposing openings are provided through the horizontal support panel each for accommodating therein a paint accessory.
