How to Pick a Picture for a Light Switch Plate Cover

Hi! I'm John with expertvillage.com and today we're making light switch plate covers. We already took it off and we're being safe and we've cleaned the cover. Now, we need to choose a picture for how big it is, for what type of room it is, for whatever you want. What I do is I have some design magazines. You can flip through these. There's a lot of stuff. If you don't want a picture or just a design or whatever, that's fine. Here we have this pinkish flower you can use. That's fine. If there's a lot of space on here, you can do a picture. You just don't want to be too big or too small. You want it to look good. You want it to match with your room. This is supposed to look good, not be ugly. If it's real small like a socket cover here, then you can't really put a big picture on there, so just use a pattern. Today, I got this picture out of a calendar. I'm going to use this one. Hold it up. You don't want the switch to be right on someone's face, so hold it and see how big you want it.
