When mobile phone, tablet and laptop charging cables are all in the same drawer, they get tangled, make them difficult to use and can be damaged over time
Organizing cables at home can be a challenge, especially when they accumulate in boxes or drawers without a clear system. Chargers for tablets, mobile phones, laptops and headphones get tangled up with each other in drawers, and it ends up being a mess of knots and tangled cables. This can damage the structure of the wiring, not to mention how uncomfortable it is to try to find the right charger.
To avoid tangles and keep things tidy, there is a simple and inexpensive method that has been shared in a TikTok video by (@chicageektiktok). This method consists of using the cardboard cylinders from toilet paper rolls as dividers and organisers.
A functional and sustainable solution
This trick allows you to store each cable individually inside a cardboard tube, preventing them from getting mixed up and making them easier to identify. In addition, to make the system even more practical, it is recommended to decorate the cylinders with labels, colored adhesive tape or decorative paper, allowing you to differentiate each cable according to its use.
Another advantage of this system is its adaptability. You can group several cylinders together in a box for compact storage, separating cables according to their function, whether they are chargers, HDMI cables or headphones. This makes it easier to find the cable you need without having to untie knots or waste time untangling them.
