My new design for a “hanger clip” for stairway spindles & balusters is designed to allow stairway spindles & balusters to be decorated, highlighted or showcased in addition to the railings & bannisters. Instead of having to use nails, glue, tape, twine or cable ties to attach or hold greeting cards, holiday stockings, lighting, and other seasonal decorations to the spindles or balusters, my design allows for a quick attachment & detachment on circular, square or diamond shaped spindles or balusters at any height or placement. Event and Wedding planners could also use these “hanger clips” for their temporary decorations at churches, homes or halls were events are hosted and no permanent trace or damage can be left behind at the conclusion of the event or party. It can be used on stairway spindles & balusters, chairs, pipes, or similarly shaped structures in either interior or exterior applications.
