ABSTRACT:
A coupling device with a breakaway tab and methods of using the same for operably coupling an ornament to a side arm of an apparatus having ornamentation. The coupling device comprises an elongated body having openings at each end. One opening has been adapted to receive a screw of a side arm, the other to receive an ornamental fastener. A breakaway tab or non-threaded portion of the elongated stem is provided to manipulate the screw and coupling device so the coupling device may be inserted between a head of the screw and an inside surface of the side arm. After engaging the side arm by the screw, the breakaway tab or non-threaded portion of the elongated stem of the screw may be broken off at a breakaway and discarded.
