Hello everyone! Often, when trying to organize our home, we forget about details, both very important and not conspicuous. First of all, we begin to think about storing clothes, kitchen utensils, books or cosmetics. But the wires from chargers, adapters, and headphones continue to be in disarray. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to give you an idea that will help you choose the best cord storage method for you.
How to organize wire storage: the best ideas
It's very simple, I tell you. You can create some of their organizers with your own hands, or you can not work hard, but just go to the store and buy them at very low prices. By the way, I saw a lot of similar things on Aliexpress, this is just a godsend for housewives.
If you constantly lose your phone headphones or camera charger, then immediately start reading the post. And then create a place that will become a permanent refuge for them.
Toilet paper rolls. Unexpected decision, Truth? A cheap and very easy way to collect wires, twist them and put them inside. By the way, you can store them not only in a basket, but also in a drawer, like an organizer. If you don't want to wait until it ends toilet paper, you can buy cardboard and make such bushings yourself. To make them look decent, decorate them with decorative tape or cover them with paper.
Boxes. The second and very simple way to eliminate clutter is to make storage out of boxes. The photo above shows the most best option, when the inside of the box itself is divided by partitions, each cell is beautifully decorated and signed. Now you will never get confused in wires, chargers and headphones. And never throw away shoe boxes!
If you don’t have hands with hooks, you know how to sew and have a desire to create something, then this option is for you. A simple organizer made of fabric for storing wires with elastic bands can not only be twisted, but also hung on a hook, for example, under a table.
Well, for those who are not familiar with sewing, a ready-made organizer bag is suitable. This great way collect and carefully arrange chargers, cords and other accessories for equipment. In addition, it is very convenient to take with you.
In one of the articles I wrote about how to use . So, I really liked the idea of putting cords there. Agree very much convenient option.
There should be order both on the table and under it. It is not only beautiful, but also safe. Chaotically scattered and disorganized wires create a fire hazard. Therefore, take this issue seriously.
The best way, in my opinion, to connect the wires together is to use Velcro or office clips. And adapters and power supplies in special containers that you can buy or make from a shoe box.
A special solution has been invented for headphones - cut out a rectangle from thick paper, make two longitudinal cuts on top, and cut out circles at the end. Insert the speakers themselves into them, and wrap the rest of the wire around the workpiece. Now you won't have to constantly untangle knots.
Sockets on the walls often also accumulate various kinds of wires and charges. Organizing them is quite easy. Exist special devices, which are attached together with charger or wires next to it and are safely used without creating a feeling of clutter.
This is how I suggest you organize the storage of wires in your home. Share your ways! See you again!
Headphones are one of the most convenient modern devices. But this invention has a significant drawback, which makes you wonder how to tie your headphones so that they don’t get tangled? To do this, it is enough to master the simple technique of twisting wires, which I will describe. I will also share a list of devices that allow you to store and transport such an accessory without the slightest damage.
Careful use and storage of headphones will significantly extend their service life.
Rules for using audio devices
Before we move on to studying the question of how to properly wind the wire, I will say a few words about careful use of the headphones:
- Do not pull the device by the wire, but only by the plug, otherwise it may break.
- Do not remove the wires with a sudden movement - This can also damage the device; a fairly firm and confident movement without excessive force.
- Do not store the accessory in inappropriate places - on the sofa or on the floor, where the headphones could be accidentally damaged.
- Don't leave wires hanging- this will lead to their rapid wear.
- Avoid contact with water, during rain it is better to refuse to dry musical compositions outside.
- Avoid sleeping with headphones - This way you will avoid deformation of the wire.
- High volume may damage the speakers, and this will affect further sound quality.
Technique 1. Twisting around the palm
A simple life hack for headphones will allow you to quickly and easily wind up the wires for further convenient carrying and subsequent comfortable use. Step-by-step instructions will help you repeat the entire procedure:
- Unraveling the headphones and place them on one palm.
- Then we need to wind up the headphones the second hand around the palm in several turns.
- Release the twisted wire and pull it evenly over the edges.
- Leave a small tail- approximately 10 cm.
- We wrap the tail around the twisted wires several turns.
- Pull out the tip of the ponytail into the formed ear.
Technique 2. Twisting the headphones into a figure eight shape
You can roll up the headphones for others, no less effective way- in the form of a figure eight:
| Illustration | Description of action | |
| Step 1 |  |
We hang the end of the cord between the index finger and the little finger. |
| Step 2 |  |
Pull the other end of the cord on the little finger with outside, and on forefinger from the inside. |
| Step 3 |  |
Release the twisted cord from the fingers and we get a kind of “eight”. |
| Step 4 |  |
Use the rest of the cord to twist the figure eight in the middle and pull the tail into the formed “ear”. |
Devices for storing audio devices
Not everyone wants to buy a special case or box separately for storing a musical accessory, and their price is often steep. But you can easily make a headphone device with your own hands using available materials:
- Stationery clip big size - great helper in storing accessories with long wires.
- Regular a plastic card will be a good device for storing your accessory.
Twist for headphones in in this case will be done directly on a card previously cut in half.
