It’s been over a month since I shared an update on my research. I may have mentioned the need for a paint fix. So even though it was in use, we anxiously waited for everything to finally be “done, done.” Well, the good news is that it’s being fixed as we speak, so hopefully this concludes this painting journey. Another good news is that he spent 5 minutes replacing the white plastic switch plate with brass. Talk about instant upgrades.

A plastic switch is totally utilitarian and functional, but I love the charm of an old-fashioned brass plate with a toggle switch.i found this source Buster & Punch We sell beautiful hardware that is perfect for everyday use.and that’s where i got this customized beautywith one toggle switch and one knob, both very easy to use.
Skill level wise, replacing outlets and switch plates is entry level. I had an electrician replace it, but he said it was no different than replacing it with a normal one. It doesn’t require much expertise, tools, or time, but a basic understanding of electricity is required.
Ultimately I’d like to be able to upgrade every switchplate in my house, but for budget reasons I’m doing it one room at a time (This kit costs $217). We also want to make sure that we like this particular kit enough to put it anywhere, and so far so good.
On the other end of the budget, my choices when designing the kitchen were: This affordable 10 outlet pack and plate coverIn my opinion this is better than white plastic. While still plastic, the brass look is a definite upgrade from the traditional builder-grade look.
