A clip system comprising: a first resilient clip member having: a curved rear wall portion, an upper and a lower generally rectangular longitudinal finger gripping portion (30, 40) diverging forwardly from the curved rear wall portion in opposed relation, a rectangular portion (33, 43) that is narrower than the finger gripping portion (30, 40) and extends at a forward end thereof in laterally opposed crossed relation, and an upper and a lower L-shaped jaw portion (34, 44) extending from the rectangular portion (33, 43), each of which is wider than the rectangular portion (33, 43), wherein each finger gripping portion (30, 40) is sufficiently resilient that when pressed together by the fingers of an operator, the jaw portions (34, 44) will open and when released will be urged toward an abutted condition, the curved rear wall portion having a first aperture with a concave recess at an outer surface, a slot extending from the first aperture to a second aperture located a predefined distance from the first aperture, wherein the slot is narrower than the first aperture and the second aperture; and a tether member having: a central shank portion of a first diameter, a first neck portion on a first end of the central shank portion, the first neck portion having a second diameter and being narrower than the central shank portion and having a thickness smaller than the slot in the first clip member, and a first end portion connected to the first neck portion wherein the first end portion is larger than the slot and the first aperture but smaller than the second aperture wherein the first neck portion extends through the first aperture of the first clip member, wherein the first end portion is disposed adjacent an inward side of the curved rear wall portion to rotatably retain the first clip member on the tether member and allow relative rotational and pivotal movement between the clip member and the tether member. a first resilient clip member having: a curved rear wall portion, an upper and a lower generally rectangular longitudinal finger gripping portion (30, 40) diverging forwardly from the curved rear wall portion in opposed relation, a rectangular portion (33, 43) that is narrower than the finger gripping portion (30, 40) and extends at a forward end thereof in laterally opposed crossed relation, and an upper and a lower L-shaped jaw portion (34, 44) extending from the rectangular portion (33, 43), each of which is wider than the rectangular portion (33, 43), wherein each finger gripping portion (30, 40) is sufficiently resilient that when pressed together by the fingers of an operator, the jaw portions (34, 44) will open and when released will be urged toward an abutted condition, the curved rear wall portion having a first aperture with a concave recess at an outer surface, a slot extending from the first aperture to a second aperture located a predefined distance from the first aperture, wherein the slot is narrower than the first aperture and the second aperture; and a curved rear wall portion, an upper and a lower generally rectangular longitudinal finger gripping portion (30, 40) diverging forwardly from the curved rear wall portion in opposed relation, a rectangular portion (33, 43) that is narrower than the finger gripping portion (30, 40) and extends at a forward end thereof in laterally opposed crossed relation, and an upper and a lower L-shaped jaw portion (34, 44) extending from the rectangular portion (33, 43), each of which is wider than the rectangular portion (33, 43), wherein each finger gripping portion (30, 40) is sufficiently resilient that when pressed together by the fingers of an operator, the jaw portions (34, 44) will open and when released will be urged toward an abutted condition, the curved rear wall portion having a first aperture with a concave recess at an outer surface, a slot extending from the first aperture to a second aperture located a predefined distance from the first aperture, wherein the slot is narrower than the first aperture and the second aperture; and a tether member having: a central shank portion of a first diameter, a first neck portion on a first end of the central shank portion, the first neck portion having a second diameter and being narrower than the central shank portion and having a thickness smaller than the slot in the first clip member, and a first end portion connected to the first neck portion wherein the first end portion is larger than the slot and the first aperture but smaller than the second aperture wherein the first neck portion extends through the first aperture of the first clip member, wherein the first end portion is disposed adjacent an inward side of the curved rear wall portion to rotatably retain the first clip member on the tether member and allow relative rotational and pivotal movement between the clip member and the tether member. a central shank portion of a first diameter, a first neck portion on a first end of the central shank portion, the first neck portion having a second diameter and being narrower than the central shank portion and having a thickness smaller than the slot in the first clip member, and a first end portion connected to the first neck portion wherein the first end portion is larger than the slot and the first aperture but smaller than the second aperture wherein the first neck portion extends through the first aperture of the first clip member, wherein the first end portion is disposed adjacent an inward side of the curved rear wall portion to rotatably retain the first clip member on the tether member and allow relative rotational and pivotal movement between the clip member and the tether member.
