Wires, Wires Everywhere

[chicagojo]

My apologies if this has been covered here already, but I couldn't find it when I searched: DD is now crawling and we are having trouble figuring out how best to babyproof our computer area. There must be about 20-25 separate wires and cords, plugged into 2 different power strips. We bought some power strip covers from BRU but there are still wires EVERYWHERE and I can't figure out how to contain them so she can't get to them. Is there some kind of tube they could all be threaded through? Any suggestions would be much appreciated! TIA!

I was looking for the same sort of thing in this board. I have found a wire "tamer" in a strange catalog my husband got in the mail, but I'm thinking it's a bit steep at $15. If you find anything else or if anyone else knows where to get this let me know too!

Here's a link to the product

We use plastic plumbing pipes to contain some of our wires. You can get them in various diameters at any home improvement store.

I like the plumbing pipes idea!

If you have a Container Store near you, you may want to check there for some ideas. They had a whole section for containing and organizing wires.

Their site lists a few, but our store had other things too:
