Abstract
A holder for holding decorative lights and other objects having a generally cylindrical portion has a holding segment containing two curvilinear arms and a mounting segment to attach the holder to a mounting surface. The holding segment has a first curvilinear portion and a second curvilinear portion extending from the mounting. The first curvilinear portion is sized and shaped to define a generally cylindrical opening having a first selected diameter. The second curvilinear portion is sized and shaped to define a second generally cylindrical opening having a second selected diameter that is larger than the first selected diameter. Additionally, the end of the second curvilinear portion is adjacent the end of the first curvilinear portion. The curvilinear portions are sized and sufficiently flexible to hold within the cylindrical opening defined by the first curvilinear portion an object having a diameter larger than the first diameter but not larger than the second diameter while the second end abuts the first curvilinear portion. This results in both arms being flexed when the object is inserted and both arms exerting a force against the object being held.
