Undoubtedly, a lot of people have those areas of their homes that they don’t want their guests to see. Here are some useful hacks to hide those ugly spots that you’d rather not be visible. 

Try to utilize the space under your stairwell into hidden drawers that provide additional storage. You can keep those areas open, while also being nicely presented and not totally cluttered! They also don’t take up too much floor space, either.

When you meet with your carpenter, simply show him the photo above. You will be very pleased with the finished product and amazed at how much more space you can have!

This invisible bookshelf reminds us of something from a Harry Potter movie! It consists of a metal shelf that easily slides in the cover under the bottom book. Remarkably, it can hold up to 15 pounds of books and provides easily accessible storage spaces. 

The best and most efficient solution is to make cord hair! You position the cords as a person’s hair on any portrait you want. Above is a “portrait” of the famous singer Bob Marley and the cords are draped over his face as dreadlocks. What a creative idea!

We have a solution for your power cord woes – turn them into power lines. Following the photo above, you can see how the electrical tower model keeps the cords in place. Plus, they resemble power lines which are really cool and aesthetically pleasing. 

Take a curtain that you don’t use, with a fabric that matches your room’s color. Then, attach the curtains behind your desk and make sure all of the wires aren’t peaking out from the curtain. Now, the wires are safe and soundly tucked behind the curtain’s material and you don’t have to worry! 

In order to make the cord covers “invisible,” you need to paint them the same color as your walls. This works wonders if you have a mounted TV, air-conditioning, or anything mounted on your walls that require a plug to work.

In the photo, the particular designer that was hired installed a small space in the trim work. It seamlessly enables the TV wires to run right through them and you are unable to spot the cords. They are extremely well hidden, after all! 

First, you need to select the colors of decorative fences that match your home’s theme. Second, place the fences where the bulk of your cords live. The last step is to push all the cords behind the designated fence. Voila! No more ugly cords. 

You need to choose boxes that have pretty designs or use leftover wrapping paper to wrap some in unused cardboard boxes. The next thing is to carve a hole that fits around the cords. Finally, place the router in the box and the cables out of the carved hole. There, your problem is solved!

The first order of business is to select a book that has the aesthetic appeal you’re looking for. Then, hollow it out and put the router inside of it. Booklovers might be enraged right now, but don’t worry! You could also try to just buy book covers online, too. 

Instead, empty a drawer and turn it into a charging station. This becomes your designated charging drawer where you can charge all your devices in one place, and hide the mess! 

The first thing you need to do is collect some toilet paper tubes and an unused shoebox. Then, attach a feasible number of the tubes into the box based on the number of chargers you own. Lastly, you organize the chargers in the box and that’s all. It’s a piece of cake!

Don’t fret! This cool and unconventional hack lets you build a secret, VIP-only compartment in a cabinet to store your kitty’s litter box. Not only is the litter box out of everyone’s way, but it’s also in a place where your cat can access it. 

To solve this problem, you can buy a cabinet with a metal gate or glass window for storing these large items. The cabinet effectively shelters the electronics from being seen while the glass windows enable airflow and grant access to the signal. 

You just need a cake stand next to the sink that can serve as an attractive design feature. It should match the rest of the kitchen aesthetic, though! Once you’ve done that, you place the soaps and dishwashing detergents on it, and maybe add some plants or other decorations so it’s eye-catching. 

Arranging the clutter can best be achieved by utilizing trays. Put a tray on the countertop and put the loose objects on it – you can even place plants, a candle, or another object for decoration. You can also use cake stands, too. Now, all the random objects have a designated space instead of being scattered on the counter. 

Luckily, the simple way to fix this is to find a deep drawer that fits your hamper and place it in there. The only downside, however, is that you may have to sacrifice some precious cupboard space.

The first step is to attach the hinges to the edges of the painting before mounting it onto the section of the wall where the alarm is planted. That’s it! Your alarm is hidden and free from tampering – only you know where it’s hiding.

Be careful to not put too much weight on the invisible shelves, though!

You need to get a two-way mirror that fits into a frame slightly larger than the TV set’s dimensions. Then, mount that over the TV and use the TV as a mirror when it’s not in use.
