For this purpose, you can use zip-ties. Just secure all the wires with these zip cords and place them behind the nearest piece of furniture. You can also install multiple receptacle outlets somewhere out of sight to plug in different wires at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hook Wires to the Back of Your Furniture<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The sight of cords dangling from your wall-mounted flat-screen TV can make your home disorganized and untidy. One of the hide TV wires without cutting a wall is to hide them behind the nearest piece of furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wondering how to go about it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, to effectively hide electrical cords in the living room or other parts of your home, you can glue either medium or large-sized cord clips to the back edges of the furniture. Let the adhesive dry for about an hour and then hook as many wires and cords through these clips as possible to have them neatly run across the back of the furniture to the electric socket, completely out of sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hide the Power Strip<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-04-1-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"hide the power cords and wires\" class=\"wp-image-103328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-04-1-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-04-1-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-04-1-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-04-1-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-04-1-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-04-1.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Power strips can be hazardous for children and pets <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Power strips, also referred to as wire extensions, can create a lot of clutter if they are lying on the floor with multiple wires attached to them. They also pose a tripping hazard. Therefore, you should consider hiding them from the view to make your space neater and safer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most power strips have holes on the back, which means you can even hang them on the wall with only a few nails or screws. You can also install these power strips below the base of your computer table, desk or media centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Put Wires and Cords in a Basket<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another way to hide electrical cords in the middle of a room is to hide them in a basket.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you\u2019ll need to do is buy a trendy wicker basket and place it right under the TV stand or your computer table. Then take all the wires and cords, tie them together and string them through the back end of the basket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Problem solved!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tuck Wires Away in a Cabinet<\/strong> or Drawers <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-01-2-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Tuck Wires Away in a Cabinet or Drawer\" class=\"wp-image-103331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-01-2-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-01-2-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-01-2-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-01-2-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-01-2-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/body-img-01-2.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>You can also store all the wires and small devices inside a cabinet or a drawer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Routers, charging stations, and other small devices may be an important part of your daily life but they are certainly not pretty to look at. Therefore, if you want your media centre and desks to be free of all the visual clutter, hide all the unsightly wires inside the cabinet or a drawer of your sideboard. If needed, drill a hole at the back of the furniture for the wires to pass through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is easily one of the most creative ways to hide TV cords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There you have it \u2013 easy tips on how to hide wires in your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have more ideas on how to hide plug sockets and wires, feel free to share them with us by dropping an email at <a href=\"mailto:blog@zameen.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blog@zameen.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a side note, make sure to take a look at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/smart-ways-prevent-short-circuits.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">guide on different types of short circuits and how to prevent them<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more tips on how to hide wires and organize different types of cords, stay connected to Zameen Blog \u2013 the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">best lifestyle and real estate blog in Pakistan<\/a>.
