how 'bout some kind of bag? I do the twisty thing above to hold two cables together, but to store or hold any kind of coiled cable I find the easiest and neatest solution is to put the coil in a bag about the size of the coil.  I have lots of coiled cables in ziplocks- sandwich, quart or gallon size.  Leave the bag open if your using it to hold a coil while the cable is in use.  The bags also make it easy to sort through cables in a storage bag or box and keep everything tangle free.

sandwich bag twist ties, spiral wrapped up around the cable?? 
(not twisted or tightened down so as to damage the cable!!)


I also played around a wee bit with nylon covered elastic shock cord tied in a single overhand knot.
Maybe small sections of rubber bands wrapped and tied??

nice !!!

I am overwhelmed with the all the great ideas
thanks
