A toilet brush holder provided with a container for the brush and a cover having a frictional fit with the upper end of the container but which can be manually removed and applied to the lower end of the container to act as a supporting base for the container. The cover has a central opening through which the handle of the brush, but not the brush itself, can pass. The frictional fit of the cover and the container is such that the holder with the brush in the container can be suspended by the brush handle without detaching the cover from the container. The container has a projection at its lower end which fits into the opening in the cover when the cover is applied to the lower end of the container to act as a base.
