An inline clip for holding a light bulb along a light string includes a top flat area, two symmetrical sides, and two symmetrical tabs. The flat area has a constant width extending across a side profile and a constant thickness extending from a top surface of the top flat area to an internal surface of the top flat area. The two symmetrical sides extend in a continuous manner at respective upper ends from a left end and a right end of the top flat area, and are arcuate shaped for forming a hollow interior space configured to receive within the light bulb and a portion of the light string aligned side-by-side along a diameter of the light bulb. The two symmetrical tabs extend in a continuous manner at respective connecting ends from the lower ends of the two symmetrical sides.
