Beat me to it.

-D.S.
Rubber covered stainless steel P-clamps are very stable and don't mar the paint. In my town, they are available in multiple diameters at the commercial marine supply shop, in packages of like 10 for not much money. I'm sure they can also be had via McMaster-Carr or Amazon. Spend more for the stainless steel instead of just plated, it's worth it.
