A holder for securing ornamental lights to Christmas trees comprises a pair of generally cylindrical parts disposed mutually at right angles. Each part has a generally C-shaped cross-section with the openings in the two parts extending away from one another. Each part also has two arcuate gripper elements that curve inwardly of the cross-section of the part, for providing an improved gripping effect. In use, one part is clipped over a Christmas tree branch. The other part extends generally vertically and receives a bulb holder for a tree light, or other ornament.
