"One of the most perplexing design dilemmas to exist is the television - a necessary evil, to say the least. TVs are great when we need to watch movies, the big game, or binge through a viral series. When they're not in use, however, they can feel like an eyesore. DIY and brand-name TV frames have made disguising flatscreens a bit easier, but one Instagrammer just took this idea a step beyond - she tucked her TV into a bookshelf."
"The key to really making the bookshelf placement work is the swivel mount she and her husband put the TV on. It can be pulled away from the wall and angled toward the couch for easy viewing, and then tucked back into the shelf when not in use to become a piece of artwork. Vanhoy had also previously DIY'd a wooden frame for the TV, applied using Command Strips, that further helps it to blend into the bookcase."
An Instagram creator placed a Samsung Frame television into a removed shelf of a bookcase flanking a fireplace, concealing the screen when not in use. The TV sits on a swivel mount that allows it to be pulled away and angled toward seating for viewing, then tucked back into the shelf to become a piece of artwork. A DIY wooden frame attached with Command Strips helps the television blend with surrounding decor. The surrounding shelves were reorganized and seasonal flameless candles added, producing a cohesive living room aesthetic while preserving viewing sightlines for guests.
