Calling All Artists




Need some help here.
I'd like to camouflage the phone. Still want it to be accessible, but I don't want to look at either the phone or the cords.
Something vintage looking....any brilliant ideas, items you have for sale, or could make me?

There are toaster covers (made out of wood...) you might try? Simply set the half box over the phone...?

Just thinking out loud... :O) Debi

Was going to say something similar - cut the back off a bread box with a roll up front then you can open & close as you wish :)

You could probably customize an old clock housing to fit it. You know the ones that look like little houses with feet?

*oh, and thank you for the sweet comment*
