1. A device for holding at least one conduit comprising:

  • an elongated flexible strip of material having a first surface, a second surface, and first and second ends, the strip including;

    a proximal portion extending from the first end;

    a distal portion extending from the second end; and

    a central portion between the proximal and distal portions;

    an attachment mechanism secured to the proximal portion for attaching the device to a sheet material;

    a repositionable adhesive layer on the first surface extending over at least one of the central and distal portions; and

    a second, non-adhesive surface on the second surface, opposite the repositionable adhesive layer;

    wherein the second end of the strip is doubled over toward the first end so as to form an enclosed end including a user determined bend location, and wherein the distal portion of the strip lies substantially over the central portion such that the second end of the strip remains readily accessible for repositioning of the distal portion, with the adhesive layer substantially surrounding the at least one conduit to secure the conduit in position between the doubled over strip.
