ABSTRACT:
A paint can holder which comprises a rigid member which includes a generally flat portion for engaging the outer surface of the paint can, a handle extending outwardly from the flat portion and which may be inserted in a hollow ladder rung for mounting a paint can to the ladder. The holder is attached to the paint can by portions which are sized and positioned to surroundingly engage the rim. The rim is received through an opening which is sized to receive the rim width-wise but is too small to receive the rim height-wise whereby the flat plate must be oriented generally parallel to the rim upper surface or at least at a substantial angle between the flat plate and paint can side in order to initiate receiving of the rim within the enclosure provided by the holder. The holder must be oriented again to that position to disengage it from the paint can thus ensuring against inadvertent detachment thereof. A second member is detachably attachable to the top plate of a step-ladder and disposes an elongate cylindrical member for engagement with the handle for alternatively mounting the paint can to a step-ladder. A paintbrush holder is composed of air impermeable material and shaped and sized to retard air flow to the paintbrush bristles to maintain their moistness for perhaps at least an hour during temporary cessation of painting and to maintain during that time the shape of the bristles. The paintbrush holder includes a clip for attachment thereof to a paint can rim with the holder hanging along the outer surface of the paint can. The clip is shaped and sized to permit easy yet secure attachment whereby inadvertent detachment may be prevented.
