The Richeson Watercolor Palette comes with a cover which doubles as a great extra mixing area. (24 wells)
This is a Jones Watercolor Palette with cover. Both of these have a large mixing area with no speed bumps.
(32 wells)
There are so many watercolor palettes available these days. I prefer a palette with flat bottomed wells (rather than slanted) and a large undivided mixing area. Since I like to fill the wells from my tubes and let the paint dry between uses, the cover makes a nice dust cover and handy secondary mixing area.
For a starting palette layout, I like to use a chromatic arrangement of paint  colors. Using the colors of the rainbow as a guide, the order for these colors are red, orange, yellow, green, green-blue, blue, and violet. The spaces between these basic colors are reserved for additional colors in these hues to be added later. If you click on the palette image's below you will see a  larger (printable) layout.
