SHIPPING CONTAINER RECONFIGURABLE AS AN ARTIST'S EASEL

摘要

A reconfigurable shipping container that is configurable to a closed state to store and ship artistic supplies and reconfigurable to be an easel includes a lid that is foldable from the closed state used to store and ship artistic supplies to an easel state used to provide a surface against which a canvass may be placed. The lid is supported by support flaps to maintain the lid in the easel state, and the support flaps extend from the lid. An easel support, extends from the lid to provide a surface on which a canvas may be placed when the reconfigurable shipping container is reconfigured to be the easel. An easel retainer coordinates with the support flaps to configure the reconfigurable shipping container into the easel.
