ABSTRACT:
In the apparatus of the present invention, a twist-tie is shown formed of a layered flexible material. A wire is affixed along the length of this layer of plastic material and adhesively engaged thereto. The surface of adhesive and the wire is over fixed with a peelable layer of material which covers the adhesive and the wire or the first layer. The entire assembly is cut to a desired length and, in the preferred embodiment, a decorative ribbon may be secured thereto as by a staple, adhesive, string, or any other means, the decorative ribbon is then capable of being secured to a package of a size such that the peelable layer can be removed and the adhesive can be employed directed to affix the ribbon to the package. Alternatively, the peelable layer may remain and the ribbon affixed to a smaller package by utilizing the invention in the manner of a standard twist-tie. The size of the package with which the twist-tie alone can be employed is a function of the length of the twist-tie used. Of course, if desired, the peelable layer can be removed in whole or in part and both the adhesive backing and the sticking twist-tie portion can be employed to secure the ribbon to the package.
