This one is really straightforward.  I kept losing track of my remote control.  A little bit of velcro command strip on the wall, and a strip on the back of the remote, and I had a standard place to put it back… but even then I still often forgot to put it back.  I finally decided to turn the remote sideways, adding some more command strips to the wall to support that.  From this position, It’s pointed at the tv and can be used while on the wall.  The second remote I happened to find while going through old electronics, and realized it still worked to control the blu-ray player, so I added it as well (better functionality and I don’t forget to switch which device is controlled).
