A combination holding and stabilizing device for cylindrical objects comprises a combination of two components, a securing unit and an anchoring unit. The securing unit has an elongated longitudinal body having a top surface with adhesive and first and second lateral portions extending from a fold line. The second lateral portion foldably overlaps the first lateral portion for holding and stabilizing a cylindrical object therebetween. At both ends of the body, the top surface of the first and second portions have separable holding elements to releasably secure the first and second portions together to allow quick and easy adjustment of the cylindrical object. The anchoring unit has an elongated longitudinal body having a bottom surface with adhesive. The anchoring unit is longer than the first lateral portion of the securing unit such that the bottom surface of the securing unit is attached to the top surface of the anchoring unit with the anchoring unit extending beyond at least the axis of the fold line. In an alternate embodiment, embedded longitudinally in the body of the securing unit is at least one thin plastic strip. The plastic strip is malleable and conforms to the shape of the cylindrical object to increase the holding and stabilizing power of the securing unit.
