Making a vaulted ceiling mount attractive or even subtle?

So I have an x-pole in the bedroom at only 9ft to the ceiling. Between being 5'11", heels, and the ceiling, I've been wanting to do a vaulted mount in the living room to practice a bit better, plus I have wood flooring there. The problem is, the mount is rather large ... I think it was 3"x7" or something to that effect. Is there a simple way to hide that? The vaulted ceilings go over 11' ... but I don't want it to be an eye sore when I move it back to the bedroom or break it down.
