Does the excess from an extension cord bother you? How do you store cords?

Question

I think cords are unsightly! I wish electricity was wireless too, but since that's not an option yet what do you do to hide unsightly cords? Does your iron cord bother you? How do you store extension cords or things with cords? Does anyone use those cord clips, and if so do you like them?

Answer 1

buy the proper size cord for the use....they have so many lengths these days. along with colors. and never run them under anything like a rug!

Answer 2

I know this works great with the longer cord, take one end make a loop and pull it through, put your hand in the middle of the loop that is now on the end, pull the cord through that, put your hand through that loop you just made and keep going until you have looped all the cord. This is the way electricians take care of their cords, it is also a very big crochet chain. The iron cord just get wrapped up around the iron when not in use. I do not use clips they get lost and I would rather spend my money on other things.

Answer 3

Cords make me crazy so I corral them with fabric cord scrungies. They are also used to cover chains on chandeliers. They come in colors so you can match your carpet, wall, whatever and starting costs are around $25. Great idea.
