We all have little areas in our home that we seek to take attention away from. There are some things that your home couldn’t function without, yet aren’t incredibly appealing to look at everyday. Hiding these items can be tricky, so we have come up with a list of ways to hide the five most common uglies in your home.

Router – If you don’t have a router, and thus, don’t have wifi – I’m sorry about the lack of Netflix binges in your life.

Lighting – If you live in an older home, or apartment, you might find these lovely strip lights above your bathroom mirror. Covering them makes a huge difference in the look of the room.

Cords – In our tech driven society, it seems like chargers are a main staple of any kitchen counter. But it doesn’t have to be that way! Hide all of your charging ports away in a drawer.

Trash – Trash bins are not something that will enhance your curb appeal. Unless its trash day, hide those bins away in something with more aesthetic appeal.

Spices – Spices seem to find a way to multiply, and most kitchens don’t come with cabinets that cater well to them – so, usually, they end up knocked over, with their contents dusting your cabinets and countertops. No more!
