How to best cover a gap at an outlet?

[Steeldragon]

Hi,

Out of sheer clumsiness, I accidentally used a hole saw with a slightly too large diameter when drilling for wall sockets/light switches. Now that the electrician has been here and completed the final installation, there are consequently gaps around these which don't look very nice.



What is the best and simplest way to fix this? Put in some latex caulk? Some wall filler and paint white? Other suggestions?

All tips are gratefully received!

The simplest and best I think, https://www.bauhaus.se/one-strike-f...EdK9a0fTkpflnQTh2anza9PwIQ1OnYX8aAkLvEALw_wcB

Is it already painted or not? If not, you could fill it in. Otherwise, I would probably look for some switches that have a larger frame.

Putty and paint if you want it clean and simple.
Textured wallpaper if you want to accentuate it as design.
Or foil, model builder plywood, piece of the floor, etc...

What I have used when I have had off for example drywall corners is gypsum plaster, for example this https://www.bauhaus.se/gipsbruk-25-kg?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIh9-9pNvp5wIVg8CyCh170AUSEAQYBCABEgLMzvD_BwE
It's the absolute best I've found for filling larger holes.

Thanks for the tips!
The One Strike filler mentioned above sounded like a good and simple option to try.
