Abstract

An example accessory holder includes a first clip member, a second clip member, and a third clip member. The second clip member is pivotally connected to the first clip member. Each of the clip members are biased in a closed position, and each of the clip members have teeth. The first clip member has a substantially U-shaped body formed by a single member having a first end meeting a second end. An attachment opening is formed through the second clip member. A coil line is connected on one end to the attachment portion of the second clip member. The coil line is connected on another end to the third clip member.

a third clip member;

wherein the second clip member is pivotally connected to the first clip member, and wherein each of the first clip member, the second clip member, and the third clip member are biased in a closed position;

a substantially U-shaped body of the first clip member, the body formed by a single member having a first end meeting a second end;

an attachment opening formed through the second clip member; and
