Other types of spring metal clips with other geometries can be used. FIGS. 6 and 7 depict a separate, individual fastener in the form of a bent wire spring clip, indicated generally at 120. The fastener 120 is made from a single length of at least partially hardened wire 122. The wire 122 is bent to define a generally planar base portion or “base” 124 and a generally planar, generally diamond-shaped engagement portion or dart 126 projecting transversely from one major planar side 125 of the base 124. The dart or engagement portion 126 constitutes the fastener and is formed generally at the center of the length of wire 122 by bending the wire at three places (A, B, C) into the indicated generally diamond shape to form the pair of opposing side portions or “sides” or “arms” 126 a, 126 b of dart 126. The free portions of the wire 122 are bent at C′ (FIG. 7) preferably to form an acute angle greater than 130° and are extended past one another, side by side, the crossing defining the end of the dart 126 proximal the base 124. The remaining free end portions of the wire 122 are bent again (at D′ in FIG. 7) generally in a plane perpendicular to the dart 126 so as to partially wrap about one another and to extend away from the dart 126 in opposing directions. The base 124 is completed by curling the remaining free end portions of the wire 122 into separate loop portions 128 a, 128 b, which preferably are circular closed loops. It is further noted that the shape of each half of the wire 122 extending away form the medial bend “A” is identical. As a result, the first portion 128 a is a reversed mirror image of the second portion 128 b of the base 124 on opposing lateral sides of the central longitudinal axis 126′ of dart 126 when the base 124 is viewed in plan as in FIG. 7.
