Item:272864655616Coca-Cola 1 Coke - Light Switch Covers Home Decor Outlet.
A safe, chemical free alternative to decoupage.
These plates are covered with a semi gloss photographic label (similar to a sticker but with photograph quality).
No harmful varnishes, shellacs or odorous sprays are used.
All plates are made from unbreakable nylon.
To find the plate you want, select the style in the drop down box and add it to your cart.
The best deal we can offer on multiple plates is the saving on our shipping fee's since the price is fixed and no additional fee is added per item.
The difference between the Decora Rocker and the GFI Decora Outlet is that the Decora Rocker has a sticker to put on your light switch. This sticker will not fit on an outlet nor is it advisable to try and put one on because of the fire hazard.
These are standard sized covers. Some houses have over sized which people assume are standard - they are not. Measure your covers before ordering. These plates are the following sizes:
Singles: 2.75 x 4.5
Doubles: 4.5 x 4.5
Triples: 6.5 x 4.5
I used to create decoupage light switch covers. It was frustrating.
They break
One problem was UHU glue only stick to plastic plates, not nylon, and they often broke in the mail or when the screws were over tightened.
They stink
Varnish is nice - however, it stinks. Imagine opening a box of plates for your house and having to store them outside for a week waiting for the fumes to dissipate.
Image Quality
Most decoupage images are printed on copy paper. Use too much ink and the paper becomes over saturated so you can't print at full quality.
It's toxic
Varnish requires a specialized face mask to apply and my eczema was constantly flared from handling the plates.
I wanted to get back into making plates but not unless I could solve all these problems.
Spending a year to test out various products on the market I found nothing which would solve all these problems. Photographic labels were an obvious choice since they didn't require varnishing, had superior graphics, and were non-toxic. But again, nothing sticks to nylon plates and these would lift off after a few days.
Working with a manufacturer we came up with an adhesive that would stick to the nylon plates (technically, 3M did). All of my problems were solved and I am able to produce items once again.
