11 Ways to Hide the UGLIEST Parts of Your Home | Practical Design Tips that Actually Look GOOD!

[@Monicalala]

I like an aesthetically pleasing trash can (I have the Kohler) because guests feel like they instantly know where it is without having to ask or peruse, so they feel more at home in my home. That’s just me.

[@heidilovesrt]

I agree, we have the Brabantia Bo Touch bin, its aesthetically pleasing, in a corner and out of the way. It's nice as you suggest for guests to find. Anyhoo that was the only suggestion that missed the mark for me, I LOVED the other suggestions Kiva had 😊

[@floraidh4097]

Agreed, it's also lost storage in a small kitchen and when it's under the sink as it often is at houses I have visited, someone is always in the way of the trash as they cook/clean. And it gets dirty quickly since you can't use a foot pedal on a door. Everyone's got a trash can it's no biggie!

[@lifewithklc]

Same, I have a simple human duo (trash/recycle) dupe from Walmart. It’s on the side of a counter where it’s not immediately visible. Something about trash in a cabinet bothers me. 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@fuzzylon]

I like a trash can that has a pedal in front so you can open it without having to touch it with your hands. I have the Simple Human Butterfly - it's really good for small spaces.

[@fueledbyshai]

agreed. think the solution to the problem shouldn't create another problem. Would rather use the extra cabinet space to hide small appliances to reduce counter clutter. also the act of asking the host for trash location as if it's the wifi code--with like a raw banana peel in your hand--doesn't seem that dignifying.

[@finn7520]

The ceiling fan in our office/guest room looks like a "normal" hanging pendant but there are three clear acrylic blades that pop out of the top and extend when the fan is in use. It's so pretty, it throws lots of air, it fits with our style, and it always gets compliments!

[@helenaquin1797]

Whoa~ That sounds amazing! I wish you could post a picture. Do you have a make no. for it by chance, for ppl to reference?

[@treluvstrees999]

That fan sounds wonderful! Willing to share a link? Love to see it

[@lillianbarker4292]

I love my new kitchen. I have a fridge with doors that match the cabinets. It’s shallower so it doesn’t stick out. My dishwasher door also matches the Cabinets. I cover our thermostat with a Mexican straw mask. I hide tv chords behind a bookshelf that doesn’t have a back. The books hide the chords but you can still get to them. Now I wish you could come help me figure out how to improve my bedroom design 😂 and a few other spots in my house.

[@HBstrong935]

Bravo for including pets! Many designers (even the ones with pets) don't talk about how to style your living space when you have pets. I have cats and the big challenge for me is how to incorporate cat furniture/trees in my living spaces. They take a lot of stress off the sofas and chairs (my fur babies sleep on and claw the cat trees rather than the furniture). Plus they like to be up high when they nap. The problem is most cat trees are hideously ugly.

[@libbyneves5457]

Cats are so beautiful. The cat trees are just plinths to display your cats.

[@sparker7768]

Thanks for recognizing that most of us have ceiling fans because we NEED them. Your suggestions are spot on. We changed the ugly fan/light combo in our main living area for recessed lights and a sleek 3- blade fan; what a difference!

[@FourJaysFour]

I've seen some gorgeous fans lately

[@creuvette29]

I don't understand why they are considered unfashionable, it's like tomorow someone decide windows aren't popular anymore xD

[@accidrainn]

I just saw the "coolest" retractable ceiling fans 😆 That's what my next purchase is 😊👍🏻

[@hereforthevideoessays6399]

Unpopular opinion: I don't like putting trash cans in cabinets. Trash is smelly, constantly decomposing, and messy. The less I can jostle it around regularly the better. The more separation and sealing I can give it the better. Trash is also moist, and I don't want that moisture creating any kind of ecosystem in my cabinetry. Cleaning around trash bins that sit inside a cabinet, even on tracks, is a nightmare since liquids occasionally drip and small bits of trash occasionally spill. And if you're like me, you like to clean the can often!

[@simplelifesg3459]

Absolutely agree. Hygiene trumps aesthetics!

[@vaderladyl]

Yes I don't like keeping a trash can inside the cabinet, to me it is disgusting

[@ndgrandma1818]

My two trash cans pull out of a cabinet but they aren’t on any tracks. They hang in the air by metal bars. Very easy to clean! I have no problems with my garbage getting nasty. Most food goes down the garbage disposal as does anything liquid. As for any grease , I pour it into a special container that I keep under the sink. I love my garbage cans hidden from view! It’s so funny how different us women can be! Good thing we get to do whatever we want!

[@Cherrysmith2809]

I like them under the sink. All food scraps go in a covered compost pail. Any trash containers or bottles that held food or liquid are rinsed and shaken to get water droplets off. I have under sink liner to protect the cabinet. Trash is emptied almost daily. Hate a garbage can sitting in the kitchen, occupying space. Destroys the aesthetic for me.

[@livnicole9550]

Agreed. I think that works best with recyclables : )

[@susannahmcmanus4947]

My husband is an audiophile and his stereo speakers are huge and quite attractive. We would never hide them in a cupboard. We also display his beautiful guitars as artwork in framed cases. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

[@babykrul]

I LOVE the dog toy basket. My dog loves to dig through the toys and picking one out. It’s so adorable and it just looks adorable too as an interior object. (He doesn’t put the toys back though 😂) Just like nice dog beds, they make a home look so cozy and cuddly 🥰

[@girlygal098]

I use black gaffer tape to hide lamp cords by taping them over the back of the chest or table and taping them along the backside of the leg that faces the wall. It makes the area underneath look clean and uncluttered. The cords aren't visible from the front or side. 👍

[@nina009]

You dont even need the tracks in your cabinet! I dont have the tracks in my cabinet, but I still keep a smaller trash can in there and use the plastic bags you get when you shop at stores in it. Then I have my large 13 gal trash can in the broom closet and when my kitchen bin is full I just take that bag into the larger can. That way I dont have to walk far to throw away scraps when Im in the kitchen, but I also have the large bin so Im not taking the trash outside daily. Awesome tips, Kiva. Love your videos.

[@lissam8988]

I do like the suggestion of putting a speaker in a wide open vase that is tall enough to hide it. Plus the sound acoustics would improve greatly because of science. Love it. LOL

[@joylastname3035]

There's this home I saw on KZbin, to hide their TV cords, the built a false projected wall infront of the actual wall that opens up like a closet door so they can still access the cables easily. That's what I'd like to do in my own house

[@ericamar1241]

I have a very nice bowl on my coffee table designated to hold the remote controls. I love it. My question is how do I get my husband to put the controls “in” the bowl not beside the bowl?

I have decoupaged outlet and light switch covers to match the decor of the room. I realize this draws more attention to them, but I like the whimsy of it, and my style is boho/maximalist. I have found that cocktail napkins offer an endless variety of styles and aesthetics for decoupage. Also, if you're going to place a large/heavy piece of furniture in front of an outlet and block it, first plug in an extension cord so you'll still have access to the power. You can thank me later!

[@tryingmyluck]

You’ve just blown my mind with the cocktail napkin idea!

Omg this was SUCH a helpful video! You’re seriously the best interior design KZbinr for coming up with AMAZING ideas/suggestions.

[@SaraWhiteChi]

Love these tips! I'm really proud of my DIY dog beds - West Elm metallic woven under-bed baskets using old pillowcases and pillows from my bed. Stylish, washable and my little dogs hop right in!

[@KivaBrent]

Omg sounds like an amazing DIY!!

[@Shannon0470]

I painted my celing fan, and I love it. Before it was installed, I knew I wanted a color that they don't come in. It needed to go with my color palette, so I purchased the style I liked but purchased in white, then painted it. Now, whenever I change up my colors, I remove the blades, paint them, and put them back together. I do a contrast on the part that the blades connect to. At this time, that is the same as the blades. I love your posts. Thank you. 🎉

[@FourJaysFour]

Kiva, your fur baby is adorable! Ours does not believe his herd of squeaky animals should *EVER* be captive in a basket. We've tried, but he takes them out no matter what. The best compromise we've found is to push them under the coffee table. I'm ok with that. He is the sunshine of life 🐶

[@trinitymiracle7886]

I love this video so much! I am always looking for ways to hide the “ugly things”. I don’t mind the little inconveniences for the sake of a nice, sleek design. I did my thermostat behind some art, and I don’t mind moving it when I need to access it. Same with my outlets! I have a projector instead of a tv. Something about having a giant black box on the wall I despise! I just pull the screen down when I wanna watch something! Would love a part 2 with bathroom tips!

[@alittlebitofjessica]

But then you have to hide the projector, lol. I think the best solution for an ugly TV is that Frame TV that costs more than a down payment on a house.

[@333fancynancy]

Love theses tips! Grandma KB and her shoe vase would get along with my mother 😊 my mother made sure with any object no matter how ugly or ordinary, she would minimize, hide, or accessorise it. She would decant mouthwash in a crystal decanter with small glasses on a tray!

[@williamrjones5152]

Love the suggestions for hiding cords and outlets. There's a narrow wall in my foyer with a shelf built into it. There's a switch plate there that's the bane of my existence. I'm exploring the idea of using a piano or cabinet hinge-like attachment with a gallery-wrapped art piece, or possibly a framed art piece with some depth (as a door) to camouflage the switch plate, while keeping it accessible. On another wall is a thermostat (hate it). I'm wondering how/if using a gallery-wrapped canvas art piece will effect the accuracy of the thermostat.

[@DonyaLane]

Maybe your art piece could be something filigree that allows airflow. Not canvas art. Something sculptural...

[@staceykersting705]

Yeah, my hall has a breaker box on the wall. i hung a canvas painting there, unframed, but it was always getting bumped. I finally left it alone. The hall's not particularly lit since it's so short, so I no longer pay it much mind.

[@LauraAnca]

I keep all my shoes in a Billy bookshelf with doors near the entrance to my door. I bought 4-5 extra shelves to able to fit more shoes, and it’s really great to be able to see all the shoes at once and also no one would be able to tell. Now this only works up to a certain shoe size. When I lived with my ex, his shoes didn’t fit behind the doors, so I used a curtain instead of doors until I got him his own shoe cabinet that looks really nice (you can’t see any shoes) and also serves as a cute little landing space by the door.

[@cs4849]

Very useful. If you attach the stretched canvas art to the wall with little hinges on one side, it can be easily opened. I did that with my thermostat.

[@KivaBrent]

Amazing tip!! Thanks for sharing!

[@keikodesuu]

Omg I LOVE the idea of hiding the speaker in a vase!!! My color theme in my tiny studio is grey with hints of red, and my speaker is blue and obviously doesn't match. I LOVE buying cute vases even though my vase to indoor plant ratio is quite off, but here's another reason for me to buy another cute vase 😂 Thanks!!!

[@sorbabaric1]

I appreciate your practical ideas and encouragement to make the necessary changes, for a beautiful and enjoyable home. P.S: I find having trash cans, etc. not on the floor, makes cleaning, sweeping and mopping the floors & floor boards much easier & quicker. No need to move things out of the way.

[@lacey9685]

I just did the trash can rack because our new dog kept knocking the trash can over and pulling out trash. Only after the trash cans were hidden away was I like 'wow this also just looks a lot better without our garbage for all to see.' Great tip even if you don't have dogs!

[@bcfriardoyle7697]

This is one of my favorite posts of yours. Keep them coming. How do you hide things in plain sight on the counter? I have a Lomi composter which I LOVE, but it is sizable. No appliance garage and you can’t put it away and take it out.

[@monas.6839]

I blame that show called Trading Spaces from the 90s for people taking their ceiling fans down. The designers always wanted to get rid of ceiling fans and practically shamed people for having them. They expected everyday people to live in museums. 🙄

[@cordiagabert2573]

They also took closet doors off ad replaced with ugly unpractical curtains that don't close and hide inside.. Also who thinks painting the cloth furniture was good? Stiff cloth, flaked off, not cleanable, ruined good furniture

[@rockshot100]

Kiva, such down to earth and practical tips. For the fans, certainly NOT with lights and low profile looks much better. Fandalier? crazy stuff. I am in FL so they are very useful year-round. I got fans to match the ceiling color as much as possible and yes, I use those dust magnate swifter things to wipe them so the dust doesn't just fall down on everything. They sell knock off swifters at the dollar stores AND you can shake them out outside and reuse them. Thanks again, and keep smiling sweetheart.

[@estherstephens1858]

Oh My Gosh - The ceiling fan idea is fantastic and I have already been planning to get a basic black ceiling fan without anything fancy or ornate that will be so much easier to clean too. It will be a surprise for my daughter because she hates the busy ornate enormous fan in her room.

I love the idea of covering up appliances like a cabinet. However, I personally wouldn't cover the oven because there are some foods, like some cakes or souffles, that require watching them through the window. If you have to open the door, the cake can fall. So, if you bake a lot, just something to keep in mind! But otherwise i love the covered dishwashers and fridges!

Hi Kiva! I love your content! 💕 Your videos have really helped me when it comes decorating and organizing my apartment. My apartment is a small 1 bedroom, and I share it with my husband. I’m continuing my education this month by joining a certificate program before I start my master’s next year, and I am in dire need of an office space. Plus, I’m an upcoming content creator as well, and I’m tired of working from my couch lol. We plan to put a desk in our bedroom, so that it’s out of sight and not taking up the bit of space we have left in the living room. I want my bedroom to be aesthetically pleasing, but I still want all the essentials of an office. So, I say all of this to ask, how would you recommend hiding a printer and a shredder in a small office space?

[@lauralaforge558]

It seems like people use Ikea cabinets. I'd search how to make a built in desk. Did you find a solution since your comment was posted?

[@baddiewiththebooks]

@@lauralaforge558 Yes, thanks for replying btw! So, actually this coming month me and my husband are moving to a 2 bedroom, and we’re going to turn the extra bedroom into an office/guest room. I decided to go with a standing desk and an IKEA Alex drawer for the additional space that I need. My degree program is over now, but I’m still pursuing content creation and intend to work from home after my military service as well. So I think a standing desk is perfect for extended periods of working, and it gives the real estate that I need for all of my equipment. As for the printer, it is going to go on top of the IKEA file cabinet. And since we’ll have additional space, I can find somewhere to tuck my shredder, or I’ll just put it under my desk or beside the Alex drawer.

[@lauralaforge558]

@@baddiewiththebooks congrats on finishing your degree program! I have an Ikea sit stand desk. The cheapest non electric version (I prefer non-electric things since electric is something extra that can break). If you happen to get an Ikea sit stand desk OR another that is cheap particle board top AND plan to get a clamp on 3 monitor mount, my advice is to put a 2x4 on top of the desk and clamp the mount. The clamp broke through my desk twice before I did that. Probably you wouldn't have the same situation as me but just in case... Lol. It sounds like you're killing it at life!

Litter box? Would love some tips on this. I bought a large rectangle wicker piece of furniture from Target that could be a storage chest or coffee table. Cut a hole on the side of it big enough for my cat to enter and exit. Glue gunned around the opening. Lined it with plastic that is periodically replaced and put the litter box in there. It works and its not noticeable--easy to remove lid and clean. Wondering if anyone else has any better ideas. I looked for months and then just decided to create my own.

[@Megan-nt7dm]

My aunt put a kitty door in a panel of a cabinet door in the bathroom, and she has the litter box under the sink. She has cabinets with panels on it, so you can't even tell it's a cat door because she cut it out of the door and then reattached it on a hinge

Baskets ! Yes , baskets for everything . Great for covering speakers as the sound is not distorted . So useful for toys , kids and dogs , toys that is ! Over long cords and extension cords can be dropped into them . Shoes, gloves , scarves and hats can all be stored in baskets by the door , and they can ' breath ' . Lidded baskets are great to hold loose change and keys . Also tv remote controls , and all the other gizmos for games are great in baskets . Finally , baskets or woven trays hung on the wall to cover unsightly outlets , thermostats or security systems . If your decor isn't boho natural you can always paint the baskets , or further decorate them to match your aesthetic .

[@ziweihuang3194]

Ikea sells under cabinets track system for garbage and it actually looks quite ok. We didn’t use it because it’s too big for us and it took a while to find the right size. But now that we have it we really enjoy using it. I insisted on having a separate compost bin (7L) with a lid from Joseph Joseph that hangs on the inside of the cabinet door for organic waste, so it wouldn’t smell.
