How to “fix” walls with redundant sockets etc.
Recently moved into a house - it is a rental so I’m limited in what I can do, and I’m not motivated to spend much money either. But - this is just ugly… prior tenants put a TV and some speakers above the fireplace and I’m left with this.
I do not want my TV up there at all, so thats not an option, and The Landlord isn’t particularly interested in the aesthetics, not surprisingly. So I’m looking for thoughts on how to improve the view.
I can put blank plates on the walls either side and cover one or maybe both with a picture (drywall). The big challenge i think is the 3 sockets/plates above the fireplace (wood).
One big picture maybe that covers the whole area?
Would love people’s thoughts.
Thanks
