Try running them through a piece of pvc pipe painted to match your wall.
Hello. Besides the suggested using painted PVC pipe I wonder if a piece of fabric like felt could be used with the cords carefully wrapped and hot glued or stick on Velcro closed.

You can make a fabric "snake" by sewing a length of fabric that will contain the cords in a color that blends with the decor. You could also wrap in yarn if you don't sew.
You can cut material in the length you need, allowing for a hem on each end. For the width, double what you need and hem it as well. Then use thin velcro to attach the sides together once you wrap around the cords.
Hi Glenna, you could alter this instruction to make it longer or shorter as required

We found that command hooks work very well at keeping the cords hidden or at least going in the direction we want them too.
Hello there,
If these cords are Electrical, You can buy a Conduit strip that will hide them, or a spiril that will enclose them from the DIY Store.
