All you need is velcro (3/4" works best), scissors and a stapler. Mine's a red Swingline.

Or you can buy them already made at just about any hardware store. I think I paid under $5 for 50 in two different colors at Lowe's.

Thats actually really clever, really simple yet effective. I have one of those on my cell phone charger cord and it works like a charm.
