Switch Plate - Easy and Fun Decor Upgrades
When redecorating rooms, there is one small, seemingly insignificant item in the room that cries out for a make-over, and sadly, rarely gets one.
Looking around your room, you see fresh paint, new furniture, new accessories, everything needed in a room redo; but wait...
something is missing...
there it is, on the wall next to the door.
A small, inconspicuous rectangle of white or cream plastic, housing the light switch that will illuminate all of the work you have poured into redecorating the room.
Doesn't your switch plate deserve a makeover, too? Ever since the invention of this plain, functional piece, little had been done to jazz it up.
Not so any longer, as thousands of varieties of switch plates have turned from dreary to decorative.
Adding this small touch brings finesse to your redecorating, a finishing touch that can be as fun as it is satisfying.
Switchplates are generally made with single, double, triple or quad switch availability to meet the needs of all room sizes.
For areas that need it, switch plates with a single switch and a plug can be installed.
The designs of switch plates are innumerable.
From wildlife to folklore, Egyptian to retro; for every decorating style there will be a switch plate to match.
In every color of the rainbow and more, in shapes that will definitely result in a double-take look, the possibilities at hand are endless.
Why, you may decide to remodel an entire room based solely on the appearance of your new switch plate, making it the focal point of this space!! Every room in the house can benefit from the inclusion of a decorative switch plate.
Kitchens will perk up with switch plates that imitate food, like chocolate chip cookies or clusters of luscious, ripe fruit.
Or, go the extra mile and match your granite or Corian kitchen counter tops exactly with coordinating plates.
Dining rooms may carry on the air of elegance you have instilled by simple scrolled wood, burnished copper, gold, silver or fleur de lis switchplates.
Bedrooms for children can host their favorite animated characters, or a favorite pastime.
Even laundry rooms can join in on the fun with switch plates portraying a full clothesline in a summer breeze.
If you have a themed room, whether a bedroom, den, or finished basement, you will not have a problem finding switchplates to match.
Whether your theme is western, New England Lighthouse, beachfronts, southwest, or African American, a number of patterns of switch plates can bring even more life and interest to your themed room.
And don't forget holiday decorating.
Use Santa switchplates at Christmas, cherub switch plates at Easter, turkey switch plates for Thanksgiving, and pumpkin switchplates for Halloween in order to bring the full effect of the holiday in your home.
Decorative switch plates also make truly personalized gifts, themed in the special interests of your friends.
Before you finish redecorating, add the finishing touch by adding decorative switch plates.
The next time you switch on the light in your remodeled room, you will be glad you did!
