The means for suspending the central tray portion include a hook having a plurality of strands depending therefrom, with the distal ends of the strands matingly releaseably engaging the hub portion of the central tray. A threaded mounting in the central hub portion is adapted to mount thereon in inverse relation, a standard two liter refreshment bottle made of molded plastic. The strands are adapted to fit around the two liter bottle, and a mounting ring maintains the strands and bottle in a preferred orientation to each other. At the bottom of the central hub, a pipe mounting socket is adapted to be threadedly engaged by a 3/4 inch I.P.S. pedestal. The socket includes plastic pads therein which are adapted for having threads cut therein by the insertion and rotation of a 3/4 inch threaded pipe therein.
