Laura, I loved the organizing cords video. I use pipe cleaners or bread bag twists to hold my wound up cords. I then put the cords in pencil bags labeled by type and length, then they go into a bin. Everyone knows where to find cords and cubes. We have a rule, you use something out of the bin you leave the pencil bag with your name in it. For large cords I use TP rolls or different size PVC pipe that I have cut into different lengths and store them in a bin in the garage.
I love that you love organizing! It is very weird but I love that. I always find it so awesome when people are obsessed with their niche thing!
I have some dexterity issues with arthritis and find many of the cord keepers hard to use. I finally came up with the idea of using baby socks for the smaller charging cords. Works great and I can leave the the one end out so I know which device it's for.
Genius.
I like the lazy Susan idea. The Dollar Tree has “rubberized green wire” similar to the silicon shoestring. You get a nice amount for $1. It’s easily cut so you can customize how much you need and it’s reusable. It’s in the garden section of the store so it may be hard to find now.
People bought a ton of the green covered wire to use for bendable nose pieces on face masks. It was really hard to find last year once the word got out.

I have both the magnet wraps, and the shoelace like wraps, and I found myself gravitating to the shoelace ones because the magnet ones are so strong then when I pry them apart, I’ve been whacked on the fingernails a few times and it’s painful
Great ideas! I have a kitchen drawer dedicated to cords.(right by the largest power outlet where we charge everything). I was using three boxes, one for Apple products, one for Kindle/Fire tablets, and one for everything else. I secured them with twist ties, but the shoe string ones you show do look a little nicer. Recently my mom gave me a bathroom drawer organizer and I replaced the boxes with that. I use the largest section in the back for all the random ones and then use each of the other spots for my most commonly needed things (power bricks in one, headphones in another, air pods, watch charger, iphone charger, kindle charger). It's similar to your lazy susan concept, but is flat in a drawer so I don't have to see it. Thanks for sharing your tips!
I love your picture with the tangled cords 🤣
Haha!!
I feel like twist ties or pipe cleaners would do the same thing and you usually have those lying around waiting to be used for something lol. 😃
Thank you so very much! 22 in total. A disaster. I love the lazy Susan idea. You saved me from pulling my hair out. Lol 😂
Love the lazy Susan idea.
Need to know how to organize cords from item to outlet.
Great tips.
I keep mine in empty loo roll holders. I write on the outside what they are.
I don't think those small clear boxes would hold a UK plug, as ours are quite a lot bigger than US ones.
By the way, the sound on this video is really good. Sometimes I find that the sound echos a bit & I can't hear you properly.
I use hair elastics with the ball on each end for my cords. They stretch for large cords, or you can wrap them around several times and then put the ball end through. Also, I would suggest using a label maker and labeling each cord so you know what cord goes to what!
Genius
Thank you for another great video! Can you please link to the white container you showed at the end?
Slightly surprised that u didn't mention the velcro style cord ties... I have quite a few of those & find them quite useful (I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦)... Would love to try the magnet ones - those look really cool, but getting them here is another story 😝
I agree. I love using the velcro ties. My family would just take the other ties off and lose them. The velcro ties remain attached to the cord and then you can wrap it back around the wound up cord when you are done.
Those velcro ties are one of my favorites as well! 😁
😊 I use those as well. They work out the best for me. I even bought the pack with different colors from Amazon.
Great ideas! I think I’ll buy some of the “shoestring” type things to wrap around my cords.
Hi, Laura, I watched a video you showed before about storing cords so I started folding up my cords and using a twist tie I saved to tie it together. Thank you!
So simple & easy love it! Thank you
Where can we buy the white bin with the lid that you showed as a dump and go example? I'd love the link if it's available on Amazon. Are these the bins you have behind you in your videos? Thanks!
I just wrap my cords up and secure with an old pony-tail holder. I buy in bulk for my hair so I ALWAYS have on hand and the different sizes allow for different cords.
Great Ideas...thank you.
Thanks for those ideas
Thank you queen 🤍🤍
I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I use hair bands and i have velcro straps and some cord organisers you plug end into and wrap cord around inside the clips i have cords stored in different rooms. Depending on what they are used for. But I do meed to re organise and label some of the unknowns. Ive also used silk purses and small cardboard boxes jewellery and cosmetics have come in too
You've never tried velcro cable ties? Several types, and I think you'd like that. The more cords you have, the more it makes sense.
Great ideals
Good video. Thanks!
Lazy Susan for the win! 🏆
I like the lazy susan idea. Mine are currently under control in a bin. They are nicely organized and not just thrown in but there are no dividers in my bin.
This is a handy video. Where did you purchase the white bin? I want to organize the small containers inside the chest.
Thank you 💗
I label all of my cords too with adhesive labels I got from Amazon.
What are the labels called?
Are you going to add links to the items/cords? If you have an affiliate link, please let me know. Thank you
The links are in the description
I wish you had all these little f’ers properly named…I am so confused. Actually I wish everything was just universal especially Apple and Amazon products!!! Why they keep changing things is so frustrating!!! Thanks for the tips!!!
The thumbnail got me here 😅
Problems: ideally wires should not be bent to much especially as you did with small radius. Th lifespan will be significantly lower. If I had like you just that small box I would be pretty happy. I have 20 times more cables.
1) The boxes are 3 x 3 x what? You left the height out.
2) I put masking tape flags on my cords to label what they go to (iPad, Kindle, phone to brick on power strip by bed, etc.).
