<p>A coupling device with a breakaway tab and methods of using the same for operably coupling an ornament to a joint or hinge. The coupling device comprises an elongated body having openings at each end. One opening has been adapted to receive a screw of a joint or hinge, the other to receive an ornamental fastener. A breakaway tab or non-threaded portion of the elongated stem is provided to manipulate the screw and coupling device so the coupling device may be inserted between a head of the screw and a first surface of the joint or hinge. After engaging the threads in the hollow threaded channel of the hinge, and the screw has been essentially completely inserted into the hollow threaded channel of the hinge, the breakaway tab or non-threaded portion of the elongated stem of the screw may be broken off at a breakaway and discarded.</p> |
