I made myself a charging station from an 8" heavy box, can't decide if it's too big and clunky - if I keep it I'll finish the edges around the outlet cover nicer but until I decide I'm not putting more work into it! I took off the outlet cover to measure how big I'd need to cut the opening in the back of the box, and cut holes in the top and side to fit the cords. I made a shelf with a front flap out of the box top, glued it in place - the extra cord lengths go behind the flap (I hot glued a piece of cord to the center of the flap so I can pull it open when necessary. For now I just have 2 cords in place, one to charge my watch on the top of the box, and the other fed thru the side hole to charge my phone (the phone can sit on the bottom of the box so it's off the counter - that was my goal, to clean up the cords and stuff sitting on the counter). I tacked it to the cork board backsplash we have above a counter in the back hallway - if it stays I'll also make the tacks look better - I just wanted to get it to stay on the wall so I can see if I like it!
