The rotatable organizer is configured to organize hair brushes, make-up brushes, paint brushes, markers, pencils and anything of the like while allowing the user easier access due to a swiveling or rotary motion. The rotatable organizer can be rotated into a plurality of designated positions and secured in each such designated position when a locking peg engages with a groove formed in the base of the organizer. The rotatable organizer may further include a weighted element, a securing element, or a combination thereof to stabilize the rotatable organizer while it is being rotated. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A rotary organizer for brushes, said rotary organizer comprising: a cup element comprising a cavity formed from a walled surface, said cavity having therein a net element configured to retain a plurality of brushes thereupon; and a base element, connected to said cup element and forming a stable base upon which said cup element rotates to a plurality of positions, said base element further comprising a weighted element and a securing element, wherein each position of said plurality of positions is defined by a groove in said base element; and wherein a center hub extending from said base element enables said cup element to rotate relative to said base element and comprises a plurality of locking pegs configured to engage with said grooves to secure said cup element into one of said plurality of positions. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 1, wherein said weighted element is configured to provide stability to the base and prevent the rotary organizer from tipping over when brushes are inserted or removed from said net element. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 1, wherein said securing element is configured to secure said base element to a surface. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 3, wherein said securing element is a suction cup. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 4, wherein said base element further comprises a lever and handle element configured to interact with said suction cup in order to allow for the release of said suction cup from said surface. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 1, wherein the net element is formed on an inner wall of said cup element. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 6, wherein the net element comprises a plurality of brush retention grooves, each brush retention groove being configured to retain a brush therein. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 1, wherein the cup element and base element are connected via engagement between the center hub and a center hub hole. ### Claim 9 A rotary organizer for brushes, said rotary organizer comprising: a cup element comprising a cavity formed from a walled surface, said cavity having therein a net element configured to retain a plurality of brushes thereupon; and a base element, connected to said cup element and forming a stable base upon which said cup element rotates to a plurality of positions, and wherein said base element further comprises a weighted element and a securing element, said weighted element configured to provide stability to the base and prevent the rotary organizer from tipping over when brushes are inserted or removed from said net element; said securing element configured to secure said base element to a surface; wherein each position of said plurality of positions is defined by a groove in said base element; and wherein a center hub extending from said base element enables said cup element to rotate relative to said base element and comprises a plurality of locking pegs that engage with said grooves to secure said cup element into one of said plurality of positions; and wherein the cup element and base element are connected via engagement between a center hub hole. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 9, wherein said securing element is a suction cup. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 10, wherein said base element further comprises a lever and handle element configured to interact with said suction cup in order to allow for the release of said suction cup from said surface. ### Claim 12 (depends on 9) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 9, wherein the net element is formed on an inner wall of said cup element. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The rotary organizer for brushes of claim 12, wherein the net element comprises a plurality of brush retention grooves, each brush retention groove being configured to retain a brush therein.
