Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel cookware lid and utensil holder device that safely and securely stores hot cookware lids and/or utensils while cooking without placing the items on a countertop and/or stovetop. The device comprises a base unit and a tubular, metal stand comprising at least one U-shaped component that receives a cookware lid and/or utensil. Users place cookware lids and/or utensils on the U-shaped component for storage while cooking. Further, the device can be positioned near a stovetop, preventing users from having to place hot cookware lids and/or utensils directly on the stovetop and/or countertop.
