Once you have downloaded a brush, it is necessary to move it to the folder that GIMP looks in when loading brushes. I use the drag-and-drop method by opening my downloaded folder of brushes and opening my brush directory.
Your brush directory should be under My Computer>C:\>Program Files>GIMP-2.0>Share>GIMP>2.0>Brushes
Drag your .gih, .vbr or .abr files into the Brushes folder.
Now restart GIMP and your new brushes should be loaded alongside GIMP's standard brushes.
The same goes for other GIMP components, such as patterns, scripts, gradients and more.
I hope this has helped you!
