Shade holder

Abstract

A shade holder device has a base, a column upon the base offset from the base's center, two curved walls connecting to the base, and a shade connecting to the column and two walls with the shade spaced above the base. The shade has its own width similar to the base for casting the base into a shadow. The column has a compartment that receives a smartphone and a door to cover it. The column connects to the base upon a bench having drain holes. The base has a plate with drain holes spaced apart and the plate spaced above the bottom of the invention. The walls have spaced apart edges that fit into grooves in the base and the shade. The base, the column, the walls, and the shade connect in only one way. The present invention receives flat smartphones that fit within the compartment.
