Apparatus for Suspending at Least One Object From or Above a Support Surface

An apparatus for suspending at least one object from or above a support surface, the apparatus comprising:

• a frame including a first segment, an opposing second segment, a third segment and an opposing fourth segment, the first segment extending generally parallel to the second segment and the third segment extending generally parallel to the fourth segment, the first segment extending generally perpendicularly to the third segment;
• a web formed by elastic bands extending between the segments of the frame, at least a first pair of the elastic bands extending generally parallel to each other, opposing ends of each of the first pair of the elastic bands extending around the first and second segments of the frame, at least a second pair of the elastic bands extending generally parallel to each other, opposing ends of each of the second pair of the elastic bands extending around the third and fourth segments of the frame, the first pair of the elastic bands extending generally perpendicularly to the second pair of the elastic bands, each band of the first and second pair of the elastic bands forming a continuous loop, the first pair of the elastic bands generally surrounding the second pair of the elastic bands;
• and
• a first portion of a framework extending generally parallel to the third segment of the frame and proximate thereto and a second portion of the framework extending generally parallel to the fourth segment of the frame and proximate thereto, the frame being removable from the framework.
