Cables/Chargers/USB cords?
How do you guys keep all your electronic accessories organized?
My new camera has an adapter and charger; the ipods DH & I have, adapters & chargers; the Flip I got for last Christmas, a different adapter & charger (which I always misplace); cell phones have a different charger & adapter.
How do you all keep them all straight? I feel like I'm constantly misplacing and losing these things. And throwing them in one drawer is not the answer.
Re: Cables/Chargers/USB cords?
We have two charging stations sorta like this one:

These hide the cords underneath and keep the USB parts out for recharging. I have one for my MP3 player, cell phone, and eReader and my DH has one for his cell phone, MP3 player, and earbud. It's nice to have them organized and ready for use. We keep the items on the station even if they aren't charging so they have a home.
I found these awesome Bobino cord wraps from The container Store that work great!!

Another idea is to use twistie ties. This way you can put them in a drawer and lable them with tape to keep them seperate. I had a super messy cord drawer but now it is nice and neat. My husband even commented:-)
Happy organizing!
