ABSTRACT:
A carrier apparatus for holding an object such as a film canister is disclosed. The carrier comprises a flexible elastic body having a ring portion adapted to receive and hold the object therein, an eyelet portion having an aperture therethrough and an elongated flexible tail portion. The tail portion has a free end and a plurality of linearly spaced enlarged nodules thereon. The tail portion is sized to pass through the aperture in the eyelet portion. The nodules are sized to elastically deform and frictionally pass through the aperture in said eyelet portion when the tail portion is pulled through the aperture. In use, the free end of the tail portion may be bent around a support structure such as through a button hole and passed through the aperture through the eyelet portion. Then the free end is grasped and at least one of the nodules is pulled through the aperture to frictionally capture a portion of the tail portion between adjacent nodules in the eyelet portion, forming a fastening loop around the support structure. A container or other object is then frictionally slipped into and held in place by the ring portion of the apparatus.
