Abstract
A paint can holder for holding a paint can having an upper groove and lower lip comprises a bracket defining upper and lower ends, with the lower end defining a groove configured to accept the lower lip of the can therein. A clip and a lock operably are attached to the bracket proximal to the upper end. The lock is operably engageable with the upper groove of the can to removably secure the holder and can to one another. The clip is operably engageable with a belt or article of clothing. The holder preferably further includes a magnet located on the lock for magnetic engagement with a ferrous bristle binding of a paint brush to suspend the brush within about an interior of the can. In another embodiment, the paint can holder is adjustable to accommodate the holding of various sizes of the paint.
