Today on Unclutterer, they featured a fantastic conceptual design from Boiler that transforms your floorboard into a miniature picket fence, creating a perfect place to store all those ugly, hanging wires.

From the site: The Picket Fence adapts to older homes and cleanly manages the electrical necessities of the occupants. The baseboards have a certain thickness to them, typically much thicker than an electrical cord. By sticking these pickets onto the baseboard, a space is created between the wall and the picket points. This space serves as a track for routing all of the wires cleanly around the room. They can go wherever they like and double back as much as they need to, all concealed behind a picket fence. Because of the gaps between the individual pickets, a plug can jump out wherever it is needed.

What a clean and interesting way to hide wire clutter! This could easily be turned into a DIY weekend project with little more than an Exacto knife, durable foamcore, and some double-sided taped. Give it a try and let us know how it turns out!
