Abstract: In its broadest context, the present invention includes a belt with clips at both of its ends. The belt further includes male and female buckle elements slidably secured along the intermediate length of the belt. In use, the clips are secured to an adjacent wall via screws or the like. Thereafter, the buckle elements can be secured to one another thereby creating an intermediate loop of adjustable size. Such intermediate loop is specifically adapted to be formed about an object to be secured, such as a Christmas tree.
