Abstract: A line holding storage device is provided for storing or displaying articles on a line in random locations along the line. The line holding storage device comprises a support housing having a first side and a second side. A channel is formed in the first side of the support housing and receives the line. A securing mechanism is positioned on the first side of the support housing and cooperates with the channel for releasably securing the line holding storage device to the line. A catch mechanism is mounted on the support housing to receive and hold articles which are to be stored or displayed with the catch mechanism being positioned such that the mass of the held article cooperates with the securing mechanism to augment the securement of the line holding storage device to the line.
