Abstract: A paintbrush (1) having adjustable control of bristle length comprises a handle (2), a plurality of bristles (3), an inner ferrule (4) and an outer ferrule (7) mounted on the inner ferrule (4). The outer ferrule (7) comprises at least one moveable portion (8) arranged to surround the bristles (3), the at least one moveable portion (8) being moveable from a retracted position along the bristles (3) to an extended position wherein the at least one moveable portion (8) surrounds the bristles (3) along at least a portion of the length of the bristles, the extended position being selected to provide a desired amount of bristle length beyond the distal end of the moveable portion or to extend beyond the length of the bristles.

Abstract: A retention assembly for a hollow tubular decorating roller comprising a fixed mount member that is securable in use to a roller frame. The fixed mount member includes a first primary support formation and a first retention formation that extends radially beyond the first primary support formation. The retention assembly also includes a separable mount member that is selectively couplable with the fixed mount member. The separable mount member includes a second primary support formation and a second retention formation that extends radially beyond the second primary support formation. The first and second primary support formations are received, in use, by a respective end of a hollow tubular decorating roller. The first and second retention formations cooperate with one another while the separable mount member is coupled with the fixed mount member to in use retain a hollow tubular decorating roller therebetween.
