Organizing All Those Extra Wires

     
We have a drawer full of extra wires and cords. You know ... those cords you're afraid to throw away because as soon as you do, you'll need it, right?

Honestly, I was content to just leave them in that drawer and forget about them. But my husband decided to organize them! He just put each one in a separate zip lock bag. If you know what the cord or wire is, you could even label the bag.

You end up with untangled wires and the ability to locate the wire you need instantly. 

Here's an after picture:

Isn't he wonderful?!
