Like most PC owners, you probably have a mess of wires in the back of your computer or running across the floor to your power outlets. While there are a myriad of ways you can organize these, I thought I would pass along one I have used and found extremely flexible and effective: wooden clothes pins.
The thing I love about the wooden clothes pins over options like twist ties and plastic locks is they are very easy and fast (just squeeze), you don’t lose them as much and they are easy to take off/put back on when you need to move stuff around. They also double perfectly as a chip-clip. The best part is you can purchase a bag of 100 of these for around $2.
Again, there are probably many other ways or things you can use, but if you are ever thinking about it, give the clothes pins a try.

I wouldn’t recommend clothes pins because they can fall off and they are pretty bulky. I think the best solution for lose wires is Velcro One Wraps.
