ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an improved paint brush holder constructed from a single piece of plastic which spans the opening of a conventional paint can. On each end of the holder are hooked shaped fingers which secure to the perimeter receptacle of a conventional paint can. A slat which spans the paint can opening provides a surface area available for dragging a paint brush across allowing removal of excess paint. The inclined surface directs the excess paint to flow back into the paint can. The slat further provides a location for holding the paint brush wherein the wet portion of the brush is placed on the slat allowing excess paint to drip back into the container while the brush rests over the side of the can for ease of grasping. A horizontally disposed tab engages the underside of the perimeter receptacle which works in conjunction with the hook shaped ends to prevent movement of the device. The hooked shaped ends deform during lid replacement allowing for sealed storage of the device within the paint container.
