Ive used the little twist ties for bread and little hair clips in a pinch 😅 Cable management kits do exist though!

I have a couple of these trays under the desk plus that long plastic thingy that sticks right under the desk and funnels the cords from one spot to another.

Yes I am very OCD coded 😂

If you don’t care about hiding them all-together but just want to organize them a bit, just some velcro cable ties. I’ve hidden stuff in the past but it was always a pain in the ass if I needed to swap a cable or troubleshoot things.
