Hidden Wires

When we did the plumbing fixes that necessitated taking down a portion of the family room ceiling, we discovered a clever fix that the previous owners made to hide electrical wires.

See the wires that come through the beam, edge into the family room and then snake upstairs...

For reference of where it is in the room, that's the new corner cabinet on the left.

Here's the sneaky solution they came up with to cover it up...
A triangular wooden cover, worn to match the original beams that are in the room!

You can see one of the REAL triangular support pieces
in the photo above.

Our fake one fits right in!
