DIY Sconce

There is no built in lighting in our bedroom so we’ve had to rely on lamps for all our light but I’ve been wanting something else for a long time. I finally got around to making something and like the best DIY projects, it required very little supplies and was quick and easy!

Materials
• Shelf bracket (I got mine at Ikea) //
• Light cord (I used the Ikea Hemma cord set) //
• Light bulb (mine is from Crate & Barrel) //
• Screw driver or gun //
• Screw

Use a ruler (or eyeball) where you want the sconce to go.

Use the screw driver to secure the shelf bracket to the wall. I only used one screw for this and I think it will be enough for it to hold up but use your judgement.

Now that it is on the wall we are almost done!

Take our your lighting cord and screw on the light bulb.

Wrap the cord around the bracket two times and you have a sconce!

Here it is above the bed- I’m really loving it! It only cost be around $20 (because of the price of the bulb) and took 10 minutes!
