You might try these (there are other brands as well):

http://www.riptie.com/

Long velcro ties, available in various lengths and 
configurations.  Available at a decent tool store, or I think you can find 
a local dealer from the website.  I use them around the shop for tying up 
extension cords, ties around rolled up piano covers, etc.
