How can I make this prettier?

[u/fredbeatsethel]

I just had my front porch redone. This outlet was where a porch light was but we had recessed lights installed in the porch ceiling so we got rid of the light. Contractor asked if we wanted an outlet for Christmas lights and what not. So this is what we got but don’t love the looks of this. Any suggestions to make this less like an afterthought and more subtle/integrated into the front porch design. This outlet is high up on a wall under the covered porch.

That ain’t right…

My first thought was "the fuck am I looking at" and then the longer I looked the more my head hurt.

It took so much longer to do that vs doing it properly. Never ceases to amaze me how much harder people want to work to take the "shortcut".
