4 Overalls

Overalls Those are clips that you can find in overalls. And clever Tacie used them to make this rainbow-licious DIY camera strap. Of course, you have a choice when it comes to the color of the webbing. I suggest you choose something colorful, though, because black can be too boring sometimes.
