DIY Cable Problem Idea

 

Single parents have to learn and innovate on tackling solutions for a lot of problems and situations in their life. As for the situation with the cables, how about trying those plastic colored shower rod tube coverings.

I know that they have a pre-cut opening and you can just slip the cables inside. They are plastic and easy to cut to size if necessary. You can then use tape or get clips to secure it to the baseboard or wall. There are also clips one can buy for those annoying cables.

I understand the need for having a reasonably neat area. After all, who wants to see cables running hither and thither? It's all a matter of perspective when we go shopping. Just take a look at something and see if it has potential to serve another purpose and not just one. Good luck! Read more --> here.
