The cables, that element that until now we always sought to hide, that spoiled the look of your business or home. Today, we show you how with a little ingenuity you will go from looking for tricks to hide it to turning it into a decorative point in the environment.
Cable tricks
- Textile electrical cable: The easiest way to turn cables into another decorative element is to make them match the style of the decoration. There are already cables in both smooth and braided versions with a wide variety of colors. Combining the cable with the lamp holder that you like the most will lead you to create your own personalized and, above all, different lamp.
On our website we have a variety of models and colors so you can decide which one best suits you. For example the black braided textile cable or the Red/White textile cable .
- Decorated cable: A great option to give your cables your own style is to decorate the cables themselves. Customize them. For example, a white wire on which we glue green leaves and paper birds along it. We will give an original and fun touch. Another option we can cover the same cable with rope to give it a Vintage touch or cover them with fabric of the color or pattern we want. Within this same section we must include the Washi Tape, which consists of colored adhesive tapes that we will place on our cable as we wish, giving it a unique touch of color. We should also not forget the wooden beads, another great possibility when it comes to decorating our cables. Emphasize that you can only use this system with cables that you can easily remove. That is, cables like those for lamps or extension cords. The reason is that you will need to access the cable at least from one side to insert the beads.
- Cable as an artistic element: cables can become true works of art. Designer Maisie Maud Broadhead is one of the fans of this new phenomenon. You simply need length, which allows you to play and create your designs to place them, whether on the ceiling or on the wall. You don’t need to be a handyman, some simple geometric shapes will give a touch that will change everything.
Varying the typical plastic cable with any of these models will undoubtedly increase the decorative value.
Another way to use the cable as an artistic element is through hanging light bulbs. Shape bulbs< /a> and diverse styless that we let them fall through meters of cable creating a different space in the environment.
Some ideal products on our website for this type of ideas are the Rope ceiling lamp or the Vintage Bicycle ceiling lamp. You won’t have to touch up anything, just install it in the area you have chosen and adjust the desired height.
- Hidden wiring: There will be times when you have no choice and you want your cables to definitely not be seen. We tell you some original ideas to make that unsightly situation disappear from your sight.
- Charger cables: the cables of your electronic devices, always in sight while you charge one of your multiple devices: mobile phone, tablet, laptop… How about converting a drawer of your dresser in the cargo space? You only need a thief inside the drawer and you will have already created that space without being visible. If you use a dresser drawer, it is likely that you can even fit your laptop. If you prefer a smaller space, you can always use a drawer from a nightstand.
- Lamps far from the socket: you have the lamp with the cable on the floor and it is far from the socket. What if you pass it through the socket and decorate it? Our idea, put some boards imitating a fence along your baseboard. This way, you can pass the cable flush with the socket and make it completely imperceptible.
You already have all the details so that the wiring of your home or your business adds a point to the decoration, now you just need to put it into practice and send us the result.
