ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to devices for securement to conventional support surfaces for supporting various items such as shelves, hanging plants, curtain rods, decorative fixtures, flag poles, name plaques, or the like.
2. Description of Prior Art
A wide variety of such supports is found in the prior art. However, they are deficient in that most are more utilitarian than decorative and, if they do include any decorative features, such features are a permanent part thereof and may not be varied.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide ornamental supports for securement to conventional support surfaces and so constructed that ornamentation integral therewith may easily be removed and replaced with other ornamentation.
With the present invention, the supports can perform not only utilitarian functions but ornamental functions as well, which may be varied as desired to provide different ornamentation appropriate for differing tastes, different holidays, and different seasons of the year.
