What to do with all those wires!


Well hello.  I am on camera #2 and maybe I'm on the right track this time.  I want to share another corner in my house.  This is my family room.  It's also the back entrance, mud room and drop zone.  I have struggled with this room since we moved into this house.  It's better now that my kids are gone, but it still gets really messy.  When we went to wireless internet, I had a modem, router and all those wires that I didn't know what to do with.  This was my solution.

This was an empty wall.  I added the ladder shelves.  

This is a little closer look.  I got the baskets on the bottom shelves at Hobby Lobby.  Note the open handles in the sides of the baskets.

It took some plugging and unplugging but I was able to get all the wires through the handle of the basket.
If you want to do this make sure you get handles that are big enough to put through a power strip.  Some of the wires are still visible but it's way better than when I started.
This wall is always a work in progress.  I change it up by adding seasonal items.  At Christmas I had red ornaments in the glass vases.  That was before my blogging days though so there isn't a picture.

Have a good Sunday and I'll be back in a day or two.  Next project is a heart wreath for my front door.

I entered this post in a Linky Party for new bloggers.  Get details at
