I know it wouldn't be hard to take off the covers for templates but there's a very nice pattern pack from Weaver Leather I bought awhile back that has light switches, sets for two switches and electric cover outlets.  Lots of fun tooling.  I made a few to give away to some friends and family.  Sold a few, too.   .

I made a few these some time back. I made a special one for a girlfriend from long ago. I hope she put it up.

Hoka Hey! Today, tomorrow, next week, what does it matter?

Nice! I've never seen anything like it, but I imagine the leather working just like a plastic cover.

Incidentally, a few days ago I replaced a broken plastic hinge on a grooming box with a strip of leather...
