An apparatus and method are used to secure a decorative item to a door. The apparatus includes an over-the-door hook having an elongate unitary body including a first end, second end and first and second square bends between the first and second ends. The unitary body includes a retaining arm extending from the first end to the first square bend, a hanging arm extending from the second end to the second square bend, and a supporting segment extending between the first and second square bends and connecting to both the retaining arm and the hanging arm. The apparatus further includes a slot extending through the unitary body from a slot opening in the first end to a slot termination within the hanging arm. The hanging arm is longer than the retaining arm and the slot termination within the hanging arm forms a support for hanging the decorative item.
