Abstract: A hanger which may find particular application to hanging items which contain a loop portion, such as ponytail holders, belts, etc. The hanger includes a hooking portion to be hooked onto a closet rod, hook, etc. Further, a main body of the hanger is connected to the hooking portion and includes first and second connecting/disconnecting portions which can connect and disconnect with each other. Both of the first and second connecting/disconnecting portions connect and disconnect at a central portion of the main body. The items to be hung can thus be placed on the main body when the connecting/disconnecting portions are unconnected, and can then be secured by then connecting the connecting/disconnecting portions.

Abstract: A securing system which can optimally be used for securing a container liner around a rim of a container. Such a securing system includes a mounting member which is secured to or integrally formed with the container. An elastic member is held by the mounting member and is stretchable to be extended over the rim of the container, to thereby secure the container liner around the rim of the container. Such a mounting member may be an independent element having a rectangular shape, so that it can easily be mounted on circular containers, and may include a ring portion through which the elastic member is passed.
