Keep cords organized with toilet paper rolls
Cords are impossible to keep tidy. They are usually all shoved into a box and if you ever need to find a specific one, then you will have to set aside an entire evening to search through obsolete plugs and tangled-up old headphones. If you are looking to streamline your cable box so you can actually see what is inside it, then this is the hack for you.
Repurpose old cardboard waste such as a shoebox or empty toilet paper rolls. Each roll will fit one cord so you can easily see which one you need and grab it without wasting any time rummaging through a thousand other cables. It will also help you keep them from tangling.
