This could probably be included with the fan post, but I think it's cool enough to deserve its own post.

The bedroom fan came with a remote that actually has some cool features. Most notably, a timer function, which allows us to go to bed with the fan on and have it turn off automatically after 2, 4, or 8 hours.
The question is, where should we keep the remote? It comes with a little holster which can be mounted on the wall, but I thought it would look odd mounted in a random place on the wall, and the screws provided looked insufficient, so I had to come up with something else.
Here's the solution I came up with:

Work of a super genius. Patent pending. |
I got a double switch plate and mounted the remote holster to one side then screwed it onto the single switch, creating a spiffy little command center. I think it creates more continuity than just mounting the remote on the wall next to the switch. It is a much more elegant solution, and I don't have to put any holes in the wall.
