To help organize my cord drawer I designed these cord wraps(Cable Tamers) in two sizes. 
The core idea to this design are the profiles to keep the cable ends locked into place while wrapped. I worked to find the balance between a quick to print, sturdy, and thin to sore easily when not in use. With that said, these are designed more so for taking the mess of occasional use cables not ones used daily. There are two versions. The larger one was the original but I did find it was oversized when wrapping shorter cables.
The small version is for cables that are 3 feet or less and are not that thick. Think headphones, or the default cable that comes in the box for an Android or iOS device.
The larger cable wrap is intended for cables longer than 3 feet or that have a larger cable diameter. Such as a usb c thunderbolt cable or 10 foot charge cable.
How to use:
Place one end of the cable into one of the smaller cut outs on the side.
Wrap the cord around in the direction that keeps the end of the cable locked in place.
Continue to wrap until reaching the other end.
When reaching the end, place the loose end of the cord into the side profile that keeps it tightest.

Notes:
After wrapping, you can compress the cord a bit more in the middle to help the loose end reach the lock profile.
*Don’t strain the cable just to lock it in place. As this will cause more wear on your cables than is necessary.
This was a design entry into a cord wrap contest on Printables. I have also made them available in my shop.
