A hair dryer stand for setting an operating blow-dryer on a countertop without burning the countertop or material on the countertop. The hair dryer stand is attractive and improves safety. The stand comprises at least one base, at least one sidewall having a top and a bottom where the bottom is attached to the base, at least one vent, and an opening wherein the opening profile is defined by the top of the sidewall and can receive the intake side of a blow-dryer that is turned on. In use, the blow-dryer is supported in the opening and suspended above the countertop. Air is allowed to flow into the intake side of the blow-dryer, over the heating coils inside blow-dryer and prevents the blow-dryer from overheating. Also, the exhaust side of the blow-dryer is directed upward, away from the countertop so the countertop or material on countertop will not burn.

What is claimed is: 1. A hair dryer stand for holding a blow-dryer wherein the blow-dryer has an intake side and an exhaust side wherein said hair dryer can be turned on or off, the hair dryer stand comprising: a nozzle support section; a first base section defined adapted to rest upon a surface in use; a handle support section; said first base section proximate to and defined by said nozzle support section and said handle support section; a dryer intake section for receiving said intake side of said blow dryer, said dryer intake section defined by said first base and said handle support section; at least one channel defined by said dryer intake section, said channel providing an opening through which a hair dryer resting on said stand may intake air; said handle support section extending generally vertically upwardly from said dryer intake section; a second base proximate to and extending downwardly from said handle support section, said second base adapted to rest upon a surface when in use. 2. The hair dryer stand of claim 1 wherein the nozzle support section extends upwardly between about 5 degrees to about 80 degrees from said dryer intake section. 3. The hair dryer stand of claim 1 wherein the at least one channel is proximate to said first base section. 4. The hair dryer stand of claim 1 wherein said nozzle support section further comprises support walls which extend vertically from said nozzle support section whereby said exhaust side of said blow dryer is further supported. 5. The hair dryer stand of claim 4 wherein said support walls curve inwardly to form a shape adapted to receive a nozzle of said hair dryer. 6. The hair dryer stand of claim 1 wherein the at least one channel extends from the first base section upwardly in said handle support section toward an apex of said handle support section. 7. The hair dryer stand of claim 6, wherein said channel is wider at said first base section and narrows as it extends upwardly in said handle support section. 8. The hair dryer stand of claim 6, wherein said channel extends upwardly to said handle support section apex. 9. The hair dryer stand of claim 6, wherein said channel extends upwardly to said handle support section and continues past said handle support section apex toward said second base. 10. The hair dryer stand of claim 1,wherein said stand extends upwardly from said first base to said handle support apex so that at least a portion of said dryer intake section is spaced apart from a surface on which said stand is placed to enable air to flow through said channel into said dryer's intake side. 11. The hair dryer stand of claim 10, wherein said spaced apart distances is at least about 0.25 inches up from said first base. 12. A tool holder for holding a tool wherein the tool has a handle end and a heat producing end and the handle end is relatively cool to the touch and the heat producing end can produce temperatures over about 125 degrees Fahrenheit when said tool is turned on, the tool holder comprising: a heat producing end support section adapted to receive said heat producing end of said tool; a first base section adapted to rest upon a surface in use; a handle support section; said first base section proximate to and defined by said heat producing end support section and said handle support section; said handle support section extending generally vertically upwardly from said first base and culminating in a handle support apex; a second base proximate to and extending downwardly from said handle support apex, said second base adapted to rest upon a surface when in use; wherein said first base and said handle support section together define a vent through which said tool may intake air.
