How do you keep your charging cables neat & tidy?

We have an extension lead in the living room by the sofa with half a dozen cables coming off it (everyone’s phone takes a different type of cable, plus laptop, headphones, smart watch, etc). It looks so messy and makes me sad every time I see it. But it’s practical and we like longish cables so you can still use phone while it’s charging. Has anyone found a solution???

Oh no, have I started the day's most boring thread? 🤦‍♀️

You must have done.

Can't you hide it? You can mount them on the wall for a start by hanging them up. That's what those holes in the back are for.

Or, could you install some USB sockets?

Really the problem seems to be that people want the ability to sit with their phones plugged in. Can that be stamped out?

Charging station dock so that you can fit 6 things at once?

Can people not charge stuff like headphones and watches elsewhere? I'd try to cut down on the number of things that are 'allowed' to be charged there. If you aren't using it whilst charging it, do it on your own turf.
