Trying to
hide that huge flat screen television? Let me show you the best ways to enjoy
your television and your beautiful home at the same time.
We’ve all
been in homes where the large flat screen television is THE focal point in the
room. In some homes, televisions take up the majority of wall space in the den,
the living room, the bedroom and even screened-in porches. All TVs, all the
time. Yet in today’s electronic world,
most people want access, but they also want to create a haven for family and
friends. Here are a few suggestions on how you can have
your television AND a calm, beautiful home that people will admire.
Invest in a
TV Mirror. When the 'smart' television isn’t on, it’s a gorgeous mirror. You can
choose framed or frameless TV mirrors that come in a variety of sizes (32” –
65”). No need to hide anything – it’s always present in whichever iteration
that makes the most sense for you and your family.
Hide the
television behind closed doors. Add shutter doors on either side that slide
shut when the television is off, adding another dimension and focus to the
room.

Consider a
disappearing television at the foot of the bed– one that appears when you want it and disappears the
rest of the time. TVLiftCabinet is a great resource for finding just the right
style for your home. The custom-made cabinets
are made in the U.S.A. and are available in a wide variety of sizes and
finishes. Plus, they provide great storage for all the electronic gadgets that
seem to accumulate surrounding most televisions. Out-of-sight. Out-of-mind.
Clutter-free.
Create a gallery wall. Instead of having a flat screen television all by itself, hide the TV in plain sight among paintings and photographs. When it’s off, it’s just part of the gallery.
