Whether to hide the TV in your home decor or not is entirely up to you. If you’re serious about decorating your home and you think about every detail, you have to think through the positioning of the TV too. It must not become a decor eyesore under no circumstances. And sometimes it has to be hidden at all.
How you do it, depends on your decor style but there are certain things you can try. From making the electronics look a seamless part of the room to camouflaging it out of the view – here are 10 clever ideas how you can disguise your TV in home decor.
What's Inside
Fabric Panel Cover
Use a panel of fabric in any pattern you want to create a cover for the TV and turn it into wall art.

Hide It Behind Sliding Doors
If you want to hide it altogether, a great crafty way is installing a sliding door just for the TV.

Or get this awesome TV mount that unfolds over your bed for the bedroom.
