Paint Brush Clip

Abstract

A paint brush handle with a clip adapted to attach the paint brush to a side of a paint can, bucket, or similar container. An L-shaped clip extends from a side of the handle body; this L-shaped clip is adapted or configured to removably attach to a side of a paint can, bucket, or similar container. The L-shaped clip allows the paint brush to be suspended over a paint can, bucket, or similar container, so that any excess paint on the brush drains into the paint can and not onto any undesirable area, such as the floor or paint brush handle.

1 . A paint brush attachment device, comprising:
 a solid clip body, configured to attach a paint brush to a paint can or other container;   an extensible band;   a pair of T-shaped and laterally opposed extensions integral to the solid clip body, the pair of T-shaped and laterally opposed extensions configured such that the band is attachable to each of the T-shaped and laterally opposed extensions and around a handle of the paint brush, to removably attach the clip to the paint brush handle; and   a generally L-shaped extension integral to the solid clip body, which is configured to conform to the shape of the top rim of the paint brush can or other container and provides an attachment point on the solid clip to the paint brush can or other container.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein one of the pair of T-shaped extensions includes at least one lip at its distal portion, the at least one lip configured to hold the band securely in place on the solid clip body, and the other of the pair of T-shape and laterally opposed extensions has no lip at either of its distal portions, so that the band is configured to be easily removable from this other of the pair of T-shape and laterally opposed extensions.
