Abstract (en)

A system is provided for organizing and storing electrical wire cords such as electrical Christmas tree light strings having a plurality of electric bulbs joined by electric cords. The system includes a plurality of generally flat frames, each frame having at least two opposite edges provided with a plurality of notches so that a cord may be wrapped about the frame and within the notches. The flat frame is fabricated of corrugated paper board with elongated corrugations extending in a direction between the two opposite edges to provide rigidity and support for the frame in the direction of the wraps of the cord. A box-like container, fabricated of corrugated paper board material, defines a storage compartment of a configuration complementary to the configuration of the flat frames and sized for receiving a plurality of the frames in a stacked array with the cords wrapped thereabout.
