My dear friend Linda mentioned using an old water hose to contain the tangle of too many wires. I cut a small length and slit it end to end. Much easier than trying to run the wires through the hose. After covering the wires the water hose just popped back into place.
I painted the water hose the same color as the wall and did some touch up work where I had drilled too many holes trying to hang all these things. Hint: When attaching electronics to wall, place a piece of paper on the back of equipment and mark the screw or nail holes. Hold paper to wall, screw or nail the marks on the paper, remove paper, hang thingy. So easy!!!
Yep, that's a shelf. This is the broken side rail to Andrew's black bed. Hubby helped me drill holes into the heavy metal and attached my painted shelf brackets. I have a plan here and I swear they are getting better. Remember that thing I built to hold pens, glasses etc. I called it a prototype I believe. Well, it's going back to the drawing board. I still have too many wires!!!Ta daaaa! My sneaky way to hide the wires. If you squint you can't see the hose and the other wires are covered by the material...and the mess is gone. Well, not gone but it is much neater.
I'm not finished.
This is the entry into the plum room that I finished a little while ago. Remember, it looks pink.

The futon/bunk finished with some Christmas decorations.
The final look. Damn, I'm glad it's done.
Andrew loves it and I'm sure Jake will, too.
Next week maybe I will bore you with what I'm doing to my craft room!
