A decorative electrical switch actuator (50, 150) acts in combination with a conventional light switch (10) having a toggle switch arm (12) mounted in a base such that when the toggle switch arm pivots from a first position to a second position, electrical contacts in the base are moved from a contacting condition to a non-contacting condition or vice versa. The decorative switch actuator has a face plate (52), an actuating assembly (54), and a cap assembly (56, 156). The actuating assembly is mounted on the face plate, and has a means (106) for receiving the toggle switch arm such that a linear movement of the receiving means moves the toggle switch arm from the first to the second position or vice versa. The cap assembly (56, 156) is mounted on the face plate, and is structurally independent of the actuator.
