my fuse box is in my living room and wanted a way to cover it up.

Is that it behind the towel? If it is flat to the wall Like the one in my daughter's bedroom, I just painted it the same color as the wall and hung a mirror or art over it.
check with your electric provider to see if it’s permited to do so. Some places it’s ok, others, like my town say no.
Well they put that electrical panel in the most awkward spot ever didn't they? How about if you covered it with something like this? It's inexpensive, you can make it yourself and it will add interest to your wall while hiding the panel but still giving you easy access to it whenever you need it!
put a corner screen or picture, even a nice flat basket.
can you hang something that goes almost to the corner..a frameless art, poster, picture. Move the sofa and put a tall green leafy something..to detract the eye.
I would put a folding shade in the corner, which will not only hide the box but can provide some storage. It is portable, so you can access the box whenever needed.
I have a painting on canvas stretchers that fits exactly over my fuse box in kitchen a friend made for me.
