Disposable artist palette

An artist's disposable palette comprising a paperboard blank having a peripheral edge and a hole formed centrally therein, a first cut line extending between the hole and the peripheral edge of the blank to define first and second sections of the paperboard blank which sections adjoin along the cut line, a tab in the first section, said tab being defined by the first cut line, and a second cut line in the second section defining a tab-receiving slit sized to receive the tab of the first section whereby the blank may be formed into a palette by separating the sections along the first cut line and inserting the tab into the tab-receiving slit, said tab having ears extending beyond a throat of predetermined width and said tab-receiving slit having a linear portion of a length not greater than the width of said tab throat in order to prevent said tab from becoming removed from said tab-receiving slit once inserted into said slit.

A palette for use by an artist, said palette having a tab in a first section and a tab-receiving slit in a second section, wherein said tab has ears extending beyond a throat of predetermined width and said tab-receiving slit has a linear portion of a length not greater than the width of said tab throat in order to prevent said tab from becoming removed from said tab-receiving slit once inserted into said tab-receiving slit.

An artist's disposable palette comprising a generally planar paperboard blank having a peripheral edge and a hole formed centrally therein, a first cut line extending between the hole and the peripheral edge of the blank, said first cut line defining first and second sections of the paperboard blank, each section having an edge defined by and along the first cut line, said edges abutting one another along the first cut line when said palette is generally planar, said first cut line further defining a tab in the first section, a tab-receiving slit being defined in the second section, whereby the blank may be formed into a non-planar palette by separating the sections along the first cut line and inserting the tab into the tab-receiving slit.

An artist's disposable palette comprising a generally planar paperboard blank having a peripheral edge and a hole formed centrally therein, a first cut line extending between the hole and the peripheral edge of the blank to define first and second sections to respective sides of the first cut line, said first cut line having an irregularly shaped portion situated between said hole and said peripheral edge of said blank, said irregularly shaped portion defining a tab in the first section, and an identically shaped recess in the second section, said second section of said generally planar blank further having a tab-receiving slit sized to receive the tab of the first section whereby the blank may be formed into a non-planar palette by separating the sections along the first cut line and inserting the tab into the tab-receiving slit.
