The Desk Mess Wire Fix

A few weeks back I bought a new desk lamp. When I went to find the cord to disconnect the old one, I was paralyzed at the monstrosity of wires that had grown behind my desk. I needed a solution right then and there to clean up this hot mess! I headed for my “desk junk drawer” (we all have them–that’s another
entry) and spotted some trash bag ties and Post-it Notes. An idea hatched. Check out my before and after pics along with my cheesy video to see how easy it was to get my desk in order:
