This is what the main wall of my living room currently looks like and I hate it! I've been wanting to make these bookshelves:

from ana-white.com for ages now (one for the kids room and one as a media console). I'd move the shelf up for the one in the living room so that there is a smaller space for the blu-ray player and junk and a bigger space at the bottom for some big storage baskets.
What I really need help on is how do I disguise the ugly outlet cover in the middle of the wall. Even if we wall mount the TV it will show up over the top. Any ideas?
I was picturing in my head mounting the tv on the wall and making a sort of frame thats about 6 inches wider on all sides than the tv and covering it with a fun fabric to sort of frame the tv and hide the outlet and cords. The closest picture I could find to what I'm thinking of is this:

Blake thinks it would look weird though :( Any suggestions would be super helpful!
I like the idea but I think this pattern is too busy around the tv. It distracts from the screen.
ReplyDeleteI agree it's a little busy. I would mount the tv maybe even frame the tv like a picture. Maybe the frame would hide the outlet. I can come look and see if I can think of any other ideas!
ReplyDeleteHey come on over today if you've got time!
DeleteI like busy, I like funky, I like non traditional things....I say go for it. I love it!!! Can't wait to see it.
ReplyDeleteHang something busy on the wall and see if you can stand it. LIke a piece of fabric or something. Then hang something plain and see if you like it better! Then you will know if you even like the idea at all before committing.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had all the tools I need to build things! I did a table this spring and am itching to build something else!
Goo good advice, everyone! Thanks!
