We have a TV on a corner fireplace the wires run down the side and are very noticeable. Any ideas? Thank you!

Hi Sherry. If you paint the cords the same color as the wall they should disappear. The carpenters on stage sets use this method for wires and cords on stage. Also you can conceal all the wires in a book that has been hollowed out. Good luck Sherry. Stay well and healthy.
You can frame them in to look like trim.
Molding can hide cables and wires as can special tracks for that purpose. Hiding them by camouflage is a good suggestion since most things blended into the surrounding color disappear to us. I've also seem molding "boxes " that contain and hide wires. Good luck and stay safe!
You can use plastic raceway for the non electric wires and metallic raceway for power cords. Can be painted.

Hi Sherry,
If you don't want to use the other ideas, How about a tall artificial Plant?
You can buy casings for wires that hide the wires and can be painted to match your wall. Check Amazon.
You can cover with a paintable wire cover so that it blends in with the wall. We used some black neoprene cord wranglers to put in one sleeve and with the single wire it's not so bad.
Easy! Cord covers! Most are paintable.

You could get cord covers the cords go inside and then you stick to the wall you could even paint it the color of the wall.
i painted the cords the same color as the wall and used staples (also painted) to keep them flat against the corner seam of the brick and the wall. Much less noticeable than cord covers.
