ABSTRACT:
A device for hanging one or more cords, such as cables or ropes used to hang banners or electrical wires used to hang strings of decorative lights, includes (a) an elongate housing, (b) an interior member which is slidably disposed within the housing, and (c) biasing means, such as a coil spring. The interior member defines a notch proximate to its forward end. The notch is sized to accept and retain at least one cord. The interior member is slidable within the housing between a closed position and an open position. The biasing means is adapted to bias the interior member towards the closed position. When a cord is disposed within the notch, the biasing of the interior member towards the closed position firmly attaches the cord to the device.
