Abstract
A paintbrush holder includes a central panel (12) which contains a first plurality of ventilation openings (14) and an inspection window (16). The central panel incorporates a strip-like raised portion (17). Score lines (18 and 20) separate the central panel and adjoining tapered first and second side panels (22 and 24). A score line (26) serves as a junction between a front panel (28) and the first side panel, while a score line (30) separates an intermediate panel (32) and the second side panel. A wedge-shaped cutout (33) is made in the first side panel and a square cutout (37) is formed in the intermediate panel. The intermediate panel contains a second plurality of ventilation openings (34) as well as a first snap fastener (36). The front panel has a square window (38) which in size and shape corresponds to the region outlined by the second plurality of ventilation openings. The front panel also includes second and third snap fasteners (42 and 44) and an opening (40), designed to mate with the first snap fastener. A score line (46) forms a boundary between the central panel and a spacer panel (48). A score line (50) forms a junction between the spacer panel and a bottom panel (52). Straps (54 and 56) are attached to the central panel. Each strap contains a plurality of openings for locking adjustably with the first and second snap fasteners.
