Egg salad sandwiches are underrated. This simple method made the most delectable lunch...so good I had it for breakfast the next two days!  How simple?  Easy: Rough chopped eggs, capers, diced celery, onion powder, cracked pepper, dash of mustard, a little mayo...piled on toasted wheat with a bit of arugula. Boom. You're welcome.

Just Spray Paint It: Light Fixtures Go from Drab to Fab

A free ceiling light fixture scored off a local free-share group looks like new after a couple quick coats of Rustoleum 2-in-1 spray paint in 'Oil Rubbed Bronze'. Save a ton of cash by spending a few minutes refinishing an old accessory!

BEFORE: Dated shiny brass & bamboo ceiling fans are the worst. Updated replacements can be EXPENSIVE!! To get a few more miles out of that ugly relic, put it out of it's misery with some good ole spray paint! 

AFTER: I used my favorite home decor basic, Rustoleum's 'Oil Rubbed Bronze'. It's a great all-around shade with a luxurious result. I guarantee no one will know the difference, Simply flip the wicker blades over to reveal it's smooth side and VOILA! Spend your money on more pressing projects and buy a pricey fan down the road.
