Editorial Guidelines Updated on January 6, 2025 Photo: Courtesy of Etsy, Pottery Barn, Etsy They're the source of several eyesores: Whether it's visible cords running from your TV down to your baseboards, phone chargers left on your media console, or routers sitting out in the open, your home's electronic devices can detract from the aesthetically pleasing space you’ve spent time curating. Good news: It doesn't have to be that way. There are plenty of products on the market designed to hide cords and electronics. Whether you're looking for a fully hidden fix—which might involve running wires behind your wall—or want to hide wires in the open (blend form and function with an on-theme storage basket!), there's a discreet solution for every type of decorator. Here, we're sharing some smart ways to conceal your home's most used electronics so they'll be out of sight and out of mind when those screens go dark. Kerrie Kelly, creative director of Kerrie Kelly Design Lab 10 Things That Are Making Your Home Look Messier, According to Interior Designers 01 of 15 Lightology Cord Cover Accessory Courtesy of Lightology One of the easiest ways to hide TV cords is with hard covers. "These handy little gadgets come in a variety of styles and colors to match any décor," says Kerrie Kelly, creative director of Kerrie Kelly Design Lab. "You can easily slip your cords into the cover and then stick it to your wall with adhesive strips. No more unsightly cords hanging down." $29 $0 at Lightology.com 02 of 15 D-Line Plastic Black Cable Management Box Courtesy of Lowe's Power strips are great if you have multiple things to plug in, but even these can become unorganized.

Some cable raceways even come with adhesive strips, making installation easier. $10 at Roomandboard.com 05 of 15 Artes Nordic Cable Management Box Organizer Courtesy of Artes Designs Inspired by minimalist Nordic style, this cable management box values both functionality and aesthetics.

This option from Serena & Lily is quite large, so it might work best next to or below your console. $198 at Serena And Lily 07 of 15 Commercial Electric Round Baseboard Cord Channel Courtesy of Home Depot If cords from your TV run along the length of the floor, use this baseboard channel to conceal them.
