    Default Fixed my wire problem.

    I think my biggest pet peeve in organization is the wires that seem to be spread out all over this house. I think in this day of technology, I can't be the only one that feels this way.

    Yesterday, I shoved my phone and cell phone into a picnic basket and fed the wires out the back. Now, they're not all sprawled out over the kitchen cabinet!!! Yeah--nice frugal solution, no?

    I just posted it on my brand spanking new blog (complete with pics) if you want to check it out.

    That's a great idea! I hate wires hanging all over the place, too.

    Great idea! I feel your pain as we also have wires sprouting from every where. You would think someone would come up with a simple solution to the problem. Just think of the money that could be made. HMMM??? Maybe you can market your idea. :-)

    You found a great solution! These are exactly the kind of ideas I look for for my blog. I really want to make a version of this for myself and family for Christmas. I need to start hitting those garage sales...

    very cool idea. I've been using pony tail holders (the kind with the figure eight and the plastic beads) to hold my wires together. Yours looks much prettier!
