do any of you have a tv on the wall above the fireplace? and if you do where do you put your sky box/dvd player/freeview box?

we are planning to put a tv above the fireplace but wondering where to put our skybox and dvd player, would it look odd to have a tv cabinet next to the fireplace? or would i be better having a cupboard unit in the nearest corner?

what do you have?

I had a tall bookcase in the nearest corner and put the boxes on top

i have put an ikea shelf underneath it - one of the bracket less 'lack' shelves. there are still loads of wires hanging out though and they drive me nuts

if you find a solution can you come round and sort mine out?

We have our TV over the fireplace and have a shelf unit this one next to it with all the boxes on, to hide the cables we have out them inside some trunking and painted over it, works quite well, and its amazing how much extra floor space we seem to have with the TV out of the way!

does anyone know if you can still have a fire with the telly on the chimney breast? it's always put me off putting the one in the lounge up as i'd like to have real fires going one day.
