Useful gadgets to help hide the cables from your workspace

Chances are, the more organized and tidy your workspace is, the more productive you're going to be. There isn't the distraction of needing to tidy up. Because we all know that's an easy way to procrastinate. One of the main culprits of a messy desk is cables and cords everywhere. Luckily, there are some great ways to hide the cables and keep everything looking neat and streamlined.

Bento Stack Apple Accessories Organizer in Black

No one likes all the cords they have. Hence the reason Qi-enabled wireless charging was invented. Think of all the devices you have around your work area. Without trying, you can probably come up with at least ten. Because everything you use needs some type of cord. And before you know it, your desk becomes a cluttered mess of what you’re working on and the power and charging cords that are helping you get that work done. You need to hide the cables.

Hiding all of the cables around your desk might not mean getting rid of them completely. It might just be as simple as keeping them organized so they aren’t in a jumbled pile off to the side. Or it might mean keeping them plugged into something right under your desk or using a hub. Whatever issue you’re running up against, we have the solution. Best of all, a lot of our solutions are great for travel as well—when we all can actually go anywhere again.
