First I would hang the electrical strips on the wall, they have screw holes on back, pick a screw with a head big enough to hold it in place. Now see how long you need each cord to the plug, and wind up each cord to the correct length, and use a small rubber band or zip tie to fasten up near the top where it can't be seen. You can also feed the cords through one of these.... https://www.amazon.com/Management-Adjustable-Organizer-Concealer-Protector/dp/B071NNNWVH/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1507006546&sr=8-12&keywords=cord+hiders
Maybe put a little floating shelf behind the TV for your router and whatever the second box is on floor.
Get some kind of storage caddy for all your remotes. https://www.dollartree.com/Wholesale-Church-Supplies-Bibles-and-Personal-Care-at-DollarTree-com/storage-organization/Storage-Baskets-Caddies/962c541c1518/index.cat
Really you need to get yourself a real TV console.... http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90243297/
i stash the remotes in a clean empty flower pot by my chair...the cords could be wrapped figure 8 style to shorten them up- secure with rubber band. i can't see all of the picture
get a shoe organizer shelf type for your router and cable box. tidy up those cords. wrap figure 8 style on your fingers an secure with cable tie. there are power strips with more than 4 outlets each. i got one with 12 outlets at a big box diy store- long skinny black and gold with circuit breaker, actually i got 3 1 for computer and accessories, and 2 more for the grow lights in the basement..the front and sides could be covered with many different treatment to hide whats under. glued back velcro. stick it to the grey part around the tv- fabric curtian, on a small tension rod under the table piece of trellis, metal grill again velcro with the glue back.
I'd just get a small low rectangular basket and put it in front of the TV.
I HATE cords as well!! I usually put them in a basket or you can get a piece of material from the fabric store and either Velcro or hot glue it around the table.

I would find a pretty wooden box the same height as the table, and put the whole table and all the cords in it. Just drill whatever holes you need in the back of the box.
OR, you could find a pretty tablecloth and use that as a "cover" over all the cord stuff.
gdrawer for Keri
Just get a crate or basket to put under the table. Make the opening be in the back and just slide your cords inside.
Turn a decorative basket or wood box (with open handles) upside down and set equipment on top and feed cords through the handles.
Cut pieces of cardboard the size of the three fronts of table. Cover the pieces with fabric, contact paper or wallpaper of your choice. Attach each piece to the table with Velcro or two sided tape.
Measure the area under your table then go to Hobby Lobby and look at all their beautiful baskets. Watch for them to put baskets on sale (about once a month) for 50% off.
Thanks everyone!
