What is one to do when there is no way to hide cable clutter? Strangely enough, wires can be hidden in plain sight! Our preferred method is one borrowed from the interior design world: fabric cord covers. While they may appear frilly, the many color choices can make a chord cover dismissively blend in or pop and stand out.

Utilizing cord covers is easy, just slip the offending electrical bit inside and you are done. We find them particularly compelling for renters who want to wall mount a television. Much of the advantage gained by using cord covers is their non-permanent and minimally invasive hiding abilities. This contrasts with adhesive cable management solutions or inside wall cable runs.
The only downside to chord covers can be their difficulty of procurement. A web search will usually turn up industrial styled covers. Our suggestions are to find a custom lamp shop or use cordcoversusa.com.

Personally, I think it looks worse.
Looks like the worlds largest scrunchie ate the cable.....
you guys offer a lot of ridiculously dangerous electrical advice. and that shady site you're recommending (which appears to just be a listing of everything on ebay with the word "cord" in its title, including duvet covers and pool cleaning pumps?!) has a safety notice that is a blatantly unattributed copy & paste job. not to mention it says absolutely nothing about what should be the obvious danger of wrapping electrical cables in fabric.
No. Just no.
