Some new outlets

I've done a LOT of interior home remodeling and customized a LOT of things to make "things" match.

I have found that those plastic wall covers can be spray painted with anything, any color, to match anything, or change them completely. You can even used the "cracked" style look spray paint, or even the sandstone style paint. It holds up for years and years.

I have also painted the actual recepticals. Before wiring them up, I'll stick paper in the plug slots so spray paint will not get inside where you plug in. After the paint dries, simply pull the paper out and install. This way, the receptacle matches perfect the face plate.

I've learned to never throw an old face plate away. Because they can always be spray painted and used again, and look brand new, and match whatever you are doing in the room.

It's not too late. Remove the face place and spray paint them your color of choice. Personally, I like using Rust-o-lium. But any spray paint that will work with metal will work on plastic also.

Try it, and then you'll have your 2 dominate color difference.

FYI, I have customized spray painted EVERY face plate in my current house. Some are now 10 years old and still no chipping, peeling, or cracking.
