Stylishly Hide Your Router With an Old Book

Let’s face it, even the most svelte routers are ugly. This clever decor hack takes advantage of an old book you might have laying around (or you can pick one up at a used book store). Obviously, this should be a book you don’t mind destroying in the name of a more stylish home. For the step-by-step details on how to carve out the book and make your router look like it should be featured in a home design magazine, check out the source site.

Hide Ugly Electronics With Art

This works great for alarm control panels and other electronics that don’t meet your aesthetic sensibilities. If you plan to hide a thermostat this way, make sure air can still freely get to it, or consider installing a remote temperature sensor. Find a canvas you like, 2-4 narrow hinges (depending on size/weight of the art) and mount the hinges to the wall as desired. A small level is key for this project. If you’re hanging on drywall, we’d recommend trying to mount the hinges to a stud if layout allows. For full details on this project, please visit the link above.
