Default metal chains/clips to hold up window box

Having taken a window box down for painting, it seems like a good time
to get aroud to getting some metal chains to hold it onto my metal
railings with. I'd like something along the lines of a chain to go
through the holes in the window box, and a clip to hold the chains
together/on the railings. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jon

Synthetic sash cord looped through holes in the side of the box has been
working well for years here.

Thanks for the suggestions. Am using sash cord at the moment (well, I
think that's what it is); thought chains might look nicer with my
railings, but remains to see if I bother replacing them or not...
