I was in Walmart yesterday when I noticed those credit card style gift cards.  Not the ones with a built in price, but the plain ones you can activate with any amount.

I asked how much they were without activation, and was told they were free. I did this project with one of those cards, and it works perfectly.  I used two types of hole punch (one from Circa and one plain), and created 8 slotted holes, 3 up each side and one at each end.

The cord wraps really nicely, and the card is attractive.  I left it credit card sized - since there is no information on it which could be stolen.

great idea, the hole puncher worked great, I then took electrical tape and covered it, to make it a bit more stable, almost like it might snap, used my old license... works great. :) never thought of something like this but it a excellent idea.
