Do you paint over or remove outlets and switches before painting?

If you do remove them, why? The husband and I are in a disagreement :) I don't see why you'd want to make an outlet/ light switch an accent? They're not cute.
Enjoyed the project?

Suellen Hintz on Oct 12, 2016I always remove the plate and put tape over the outlet to keep them pristine. IMHO there's nothing tackier than outlets that have been painted over. I use colored outlets that show the least. I also buy extra screws so I don't have chipped paint on the screw heads.
