REMOVE CORD CLUTTER Cords that run from home electronics to power sources can be unsightly and a hazard if you have pets or young children in your home. Thankfully, hiding them isn't too difficult and rather inexpensive. If you're hiding cords along the floor, use zip ties to bundle them together and slide them through a baseboard cord channel, keeping them out of sight and preventing tripping. Cords along counters, behind desks and from televisions to outlets can also be secured in a similar fashion. Cord covers can be connected to one another with flat couplings or elbows if you need to go around a corner. Flexible cord covers, also known as flex tubes, are available and might suit your needs better than more rigid, flat options. If you’re concerned about visible tubes running through your home, most cord covers can easily be painted to match or blend into your décor. A final option, especially in a home office or kitchen, is to install a power source inside a drawer. Drill a hole in the back of the drawer and mount a power bar to the rear, then connect it to a nearby outlet. This allows you to charge your devices inside the drawer, keeping them out of the way.
