Switching the Switches

I mentioned yesterday that we bought new switches and outlets for the kitchen over the weekend. While we are going to wait to install them once we get the tile done, Nate did install two of them just to show me how it would look, which is fantastic.
The before pictures:
One outlet in our kitchen had this lovely wood plate on it:

The remaining outlets are a dirty cream color:

A Hint of the After Pictures:

We will be switching all the outlets and switches to be white, will brushed nickel plate covers. As BK said, "You wouldn't think something so small would make such a difference".
Eventually we would like to replace these throughout our house.
