Fashion scrunch clip apparatus and method

Abstract

An apparatus including an attachment device configured to allow the pin to be inserted and held by the attachment device; a strip of material having a first end and an opposing second end; wherein the pin is fixed to the strip of material nearer the first end than the second end; wherein the attachment device is fixed to the strip of material nearer the second end than the first end; and wherein the pin is configured to attach to the attachment device, The pin may project out substantially perpendicular from the strip of material, such that the pin can be inserted into the attachment device to cause the apparatus to be substantially in a closed loop, without the pin projecting out of the attachment device. The apparatus may be attached to clothing to cause one portion of the clothing to come closer to another portion of the clothing for aesthetics.

I claim: 
     
         1 . An apparatus comprising:
 a pin;   an attachment device configured to allow the pin to be inserted and held by the attachment device;   a strip of material having a first end and an opposing second end;   wherein the pin is fixed to the strip of material nearer the first end than the second end;   wherein the attachment device is fixed to the strip of material nearer the second end than the first end; and   and wherein the pin is configured to attach to the attachment device to cause the strip of material to be in a substantially closed loop.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein
 the strip of material has a length and a width, wherein the length is substantially longer than the width. 
 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 2  wherein
 the length of the strip of material is between two and six inches. 
 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein
 the pin projects out substantially perpendicular from the strip of material. 
 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising
 the pin has a height, projecting outwards substantially perpendicularly from the strip of material, such that the pin can be inserted into the attachment device to cause the apparatus to be substantially in a closed loop, without the pin projecting out of the attachment device. 
 
     
     
         6 . A method comprising the steps of:
 attaching an apparatus to clothing in a manner which causes one portion of the clothing to be brought closer together to another portion of the clothing;   wherein the apparatus comprises:
 a pin; 
 an attachment device configured to allow the pin to be inserted and held by the attachment device; and 
 a strip of material having a first end and an opposing second end; 
   wherein the pin is fixed to the strip of material nearer the first end than the second end;   wherein the attachment device is fixed to the strip of material nearer the second end than the first end; and   and wherein the pin is configured to attach to the attachment device to cause the strip of material to be in a substantially closed loop.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6  wherein
 the strip of material has a length and a width, wherein the length is substantially longer than the width. 
 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7  wherein
 the length of the strip of material is between two and six inches. 
 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 7  wherein
 the pin projects out substantially perpendicular from the strip of material. 
 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 6  wherein
 the pin has a height, projecting outwards substantially perpendicularly from the strip of material, such that the pin can be inserted into the attachment device to cause the apparatus to be substantially in a closed loop, without the pin projecting out of the attachment device.
