  Wireless HDMI isn't cheap - you also need to ensure it works with HDCP as well.
  
  Here's one example, not sure about HDCP though?

  HI, I want to send a SKY signal to my projector wirelessly. The projector has an HDMI input. Any ideas greatly appreciated. It's about 15 meters through open air i.e. no walls in the way

  It may be easier getting miltiscreen, or multiroom.
  
  If it will let you you could connect your laptop up to the projector then use skygo, bit of a faff though.
  
  Or just buy a 15mtr HDMI lead.

  ......and that example only does DVD quality, you can easily double that price to get a device to do HD quality, which is really the quality you should be looking at, especially for a pj.
  
  If you can't go under the floor or in the ceiling, two equal lengths of HDMI with a repeater, hide the cable in some 15mm D-Line trunking around the skirting board.

  If you really need to duck and dive with a cable then HDMI is probably not the best being quite thick, especially the longer it gets, and you run the risk of dropouts on even high speed cables over 10m (yeah, queue the folks who swear blind their 30m cables work just fine, blah, blah blah).
  
  What you could try is HDMI over ethernet. Amazon has many examples to choose from, some quite cheap(ish).
