After the holidays, cables and wires are often a site for sore eyes amidst the influx of new high-tech toys, gadgets, and accessories. Thankfully, New Orleans homeowners can utilize a few quick steps to restore function and design to their living rooms and home offices.
- Cable Ties (also known as Wire Ties)

Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Start by unplugging and detangling all of the cables and cords.
- Apply electrical tape or heat shrink tubing to any frayed cords and pull the cables together to a single meeting point.
- Use the cable tie installation tool to fit a cable tie around the meeting point.
- Every four to six inches, fit cable ties or wire ties to ensure the cords stay together. Using adhesive back mounting bases can help hide the bundle by attaching it to inconspicuous nooks in the desk, shelf, or entertainment center.
