Hold your arm out and loop one end of the cord over the top of your hand away from your body. Roll the next loop underneath so it runs across your hand toward your body. Continue wrapping over (away from your body) and under (toward your body) until you reach the end of the cord. Use a tie or cord organizer to keep the loops together.

Wrap the cable up in a bundle by wrapping it around your fingers. You can also coil it in a loop if you prefer. Wrap a piece of tape around it with the sticky part facing outside, and stick it to itself. Wrap another piece of tape on top of it, sticky side to sticky side, so the cable won't stick to everything.

To begin wrapping your extension cord, grab its male end and loop a section of the cable on top of the male end. Make a loop of whatever size seems comfortable to you. For the second loop, grab the cord and wrap it underneath your hand. Repeat the first and second processes of making a loop until you reach the other end of the cord.

Wrap the cord with the electrical tape or cord wrap, locking the wrap in place. To prevent the cord from unraveling, wrap it tightly with tape or cord wrap. On the opposite end of the cord, repeat the procedure. After wrapping the cord on both ends, join the male and female ends by slipping the male end into the female end.
