Hiding Technology

My apartment has a very weird location for the only place I can connect my internet, it's on the main wall coming into my apartment.

For a while I just kept everything in a basket but it looked really messy. Sorry for the bad picture of it but it's all I have you have to look past the ottoman and the cat to see it.

So I decided that I'd buy one of those shoe storage things from Ikea since they are so slim and wouldn't take up much room. I decided on the Hemnes Shoe cabinet with 4 compartments.

Only I thought the hardware made it look kind of boring so I replaced the hardware with new pulls from Lee Valley and now my wall looks like this.

I think it looks much cleaner and it's easy to access all the plug ins, because the shoe cabinet has no back to it. Because I live in an apartment I didn't want to drill into the wall so I used about 8 3M command strips positioned so that later I can just pull the tabs and the cabinet will come right off the wall.

Till next time!

Back from the Blogging Dead!

I'm back!

I had some stuff come up in my life that made me get distracted from this blog, but now I'm back and excited to show off all the changes I've made to my little apartment! I'll be posting something new soon.
