Abstract
A clipping apparatus for preventing tripping hazards caused by cords and simplifying installation of decorative lights having a tension clip. The tension clip is substantially U-shaped having an elongated member having two downwardly extending arms, each arm having a base. Each base has a small, V-shaped recessed channel through which a cord or strand of lights extends. A fully adjustable slide and click mechanism lengthens or shortens the elongated member of the tension clip. A pair of outwardly angled and extending fasteners define a simple clip mechanism attached to the elongated member and or one or both of the two arms for use in suspending the cord from tension clips installed upside down.
