My favorite living room accessory, the Frame TV, a picture frame tv that looks and hangs like art. The Samsung art tv is a stunning way to incorporate a television into your room and disguise it as art. I’m sharing everything I learned and what I really think of this TV after 8 years!
TV’s create a black hole in a room, drawing the eye, but for all the wrong reasons. Several years ago, I got the first Samsung Frame TV and I have been obsessed since, adding one in our Primary Bedroom and even our Laundry Room!
They’re incredibly easy to install and use! It hangs flush to the wall with adjustable lighting so that it truly looks like art. We change the art on our tv seasonally and for special occasions, including birthdays!
TV that Looks like Art
Can you find the television in this post? The Frame TV is discreet and comes in an array of sizes with a variety of bevels to customize it for your space.
It is one of the few investments that we use and love every day. It can be easily hung in any space, even over the fireplace mantel.
When we purchased our current home, we struggled to decide which of the two rooms would be the family room that we’d gather to watch tv. One was smaller, just off the entryway with bookcases, a fireplace and was adjacent to the kitchen.
The other was a larger, more removed space that lacked character, but would have been easier to hide that big black box thing – aka the tv. We ultimately decided to sacrifice design for convenience and family togetherness, placing the big black screen over the fireplace off the entryway.
We loved it – when it was on. The kids could decompress after school while I made dinner, but when we weren’t using it, it felt like it overpowered the entire room. The tv was the first thing you’d see when you entered our home, which didn’t feel inviting. Now, it’s the focal point!
I have to do a double take each time I pass by because you’d never guess it was a tv if you didn’t know! For years guests would stare at it, ask for details and subsequently purchase one for their home The Frame is so minimal and with the No Gap Wall-mount, it mounts flush against the wall, just like art.

TV Art Sources
My favorite sources to find art for your tv, including free public domain art!
The Frame TV makes each room feel fresh. I love that I can transition our art with the seasons. Unlike art, it’s easily inexpensive to update often. One of my favorite “moments” was when I used the photograph of my mom and uncle on their Christmas card from the 50’s. I change them regularly in just seconds!

Frame TV Bevels
I LOVE this! I have a pretty fireplace wall in my family room and I hate the ugly TV hanging above it, I was just saying to my husband this morning we should really replace it with a more decorative one!
I was considering eliminating it or moving to another room because I’m not a fan of black. It solved all my problems!
That looks incredible. I’d never know it was a tv, and I love that you can add your photos too it as well! What a game changer for millions of fireplaces across the land. The room looks beautiful!
Isn’t it? Merry Christmas, Shannon!
I need one of these in my living room!!! The TV is such an eye sore, but this would solve all my problems. I love it! Love the photos you chose for it too!!
Thank you, Lindsay! Merry Christmas!
WOW…  That’s the best thing I’ve ever seen!  Can you actually have a fire with the tv there or would it get too hot?  I love that, and it may end up being my husband’s birthday present!!  😉
We’be always had a tv hung there but never had a fire. I talked with a local fireplace store who said the mantle serves as a heat deflector and they have sensors to ensure the tv doesn’t get too hot. I think Gas logs are in our future (I don’t like the mess of a wood fire indoors).
Wonderful idea! Â Also beats sticking the tv behind doors into a cabinet! Â Remember! Â Great idea! Â Your room is lovely, as well as the rest of your home! Â So calming! Â
Yes, so true! Thank you, Maria! Happy Holidays!
