As you can see, my mom and I are in the middle of painting her hallway. I’m actually excited because I convinced her to go a bit bolder (the darker green is the shade we’re painting). We’re also buying new fixtures, light switches and wall decorations. I’m really enjoying it! I love doing this project with my mom, and I love choosing coordinating items that will accent a room. That is where this product comes in:

If you appreciate color coordination, you will appreciate a new product from Levitron: Renu®. As seen on the DIY Network, Renu is the smart new way to update the look of a room in a snap, now and later. The Renu collection includes:
-switches
-Combination switches
-wall plates
-dimmers/Remotes
-Tamper Resistant Outlets
-Tamper Resistant GFCI Outlets
-QuickPort Connectors

Each of these faces you can update yourself whenever you’re ready for a new look. Available in 20 popular paint colors, Renu products can blend in or contrast with a room’s walls or trim. Renu turns the electrical device into a decorative, easy to change accessory. I’ve turned my mom onto Renu, actually. We are going to try installing a few of these in some fun colors that contrast with the paint and really make a statement. I’ll have to show you what we come up with! Do you want to learn more?

Thanks for posting Amy!
Who knew there were so many option for light switches? Awesome!
Those are so cool! I have some old, dark brown outlets and light switches and they stick out like a sore thumb. Thanks for the tip on the twitter party tonight, I will try to make it!
