Default Smaller, less ugly outdoor electric outlet?

I'm looking to run some electricity out into the garden (in a permanent

Problem is, the garden is not large, and most of the outdoor outlet boxes
I've seen are rather large and industrial-looking.

Has anyone seen any outdoor outlet boxes that are smaller and perhaps
greener (to blend in)?

Thanks,
Chris


How a small 2x4 inch box is so ugly is beyond me. But if it bothers
you so much, get some sort of hollow lawn ornament to place over the
top of it. In your case, one of those plastic lawn trolls would work
great........

Some people (like you) really need to get a life......

BTW, they do sell green colored boxes and covers, or a little green
spray paint will do the job too.
