Abstract: A paintbrush holder includes a horizontal portion supporting a resilient edge attachment securable to a variety of paint can configurations. An upwardly angled portion extends from the horizontal portion and terminates in a concave upwardly facing notch having extending prongs on either side thereof. A triangularly shaped extended portion extends downwardly from the horizontal portion and terminates in a straight edge useful for paint masking. The brush holder further includes an upwardly extending tab used in retaining or securing a paintbrush rested upon the paintbrush holder such that the paintbrush handle is received within the upwardly facing concave notch while the paintbrush bristle portion rests upon and extends downwardly from the triangular extension.
