The present invention provides a Self-Closing Clasp Assembly designed to allow a loose object to be easily attached to an object that is already being conveniently handled or carried by a person. The Self-Closing Clasp Assembly is comprised of three elements: a Self-Closing Element linked by an Elongated Element to a Connecting Element. The Self-Closing Element is sized to grasp around an object that is relatively structural in nature, such as a shoulder-bag strap, belt or strap on a golfbag and is designed to be operated with one hand. The Self-Closing Element preferably comprises a self-closing clasp, or ring. The Elongated Element can be rigid or flexible and is preferably formed by items such as one or more chain links, an adjustable or fixed-length strap, or a bar, and is preferably used to link the Self-Closing Element to the Connecting Element. The Connecting Element preferably consists of a self-closing clasp, clip, clasp, bolt, finial, or ring and is designed to be affixed to the loose object.
