Extra long electrical wires, including extension cords and phone cords, may trip your little one - and are tempting for your baby to tug or chew on.
These cord holders will hold those loose wires snugly against the wall.
Just cut 2+ pieces of 1" (5cm) wide sticky-back Velcro® about 2" (10cm) long.
Place the sticky-back side Velcro® pieces along your baseboard, or wall, where the cord runs along - a foot or two (30-60cm) apart.
Stretch your cord out tight and place the other side of the Velcro® over top of each piece attached to the wall, to hold the cord in place.
Use as many pieces of Velcro® as you need to hold the cord securely to your wall.
Thanks to Catherine for this Frugal Baby Tip!

About Catherine: I have been writing my Frugal Baby Tips since 1982, when I was a young divorced mom of two - for my baby product company, Born to Love. I am now mom to three grown up sons, and a grandma - and happily married to a wonderful man. We have rescued two little dogs, Denny and Dexter - and a rescue cat, Bella.
Taking care of baby and mom needs naturally, does not have to cost a whole lot of money! Money-saving tips on diapering, diaper washing, safety, sling and baby carriers, toys, clothing, nursing, menstrual needs, traveling with kids, and more!
If you have Frugal Baby Tips to share, we want to hear them! It might even get published!
