Things You'll Need
Whole outlet covers
Screwdriver
Snap together switch plate cov
Safety wall plate
Solution:
Does it annoy you that your outlets don't match? Or that you can't find the right configuration of switch plates? Do you hate thoses little plug in safety covers? Well I have the answers.
   
1. Okay, first those outlets, it's not that there is any actual problem with them not matching. But if you hate the fact that some of your outlets are black, some white, some are almond, and you're not going to rewire all of them, pick up some whole outlet covers. This type of plate covers the entire outlet not just the outer area, so every receptacle can look exactly the same, and all you need is a screwdriver!
 
2. If you can't find the right configuration of switch plate covers, look for a snap together version. You can buy them in as many pieces as you need, match them up to the outlet and voila, a perfect match!
