How To Wire and Install Sconces

Hey Hey Hey, another week has started. I'm saying that in an excited voice, but I'm not sure I'm that excited about it. Anyone else feel the same? It's been a bit dreary lately, so that's probably why I'm trying to amp myself up. Apparently, I need sunshine and coffee to be happy. Anyways, we've made some more progress on the kitchen. We are slowly inching towards the finish line. Yay! Actually, I am pretty happy today because all my tile for the walls came in. So, we can get on that pretty soon. I can't wait to show you!!

Last week, I shared affordable baskets to help you organize your kitchen as well as a tutorial that showed how to install a range hood. If you saw the range hood post, then you saw a good peek at our sconces. If you missed the range hood post, what are doing? That post was gold. =) Today, I'm sharing How to Wire and Install Sconces over at eHow.

Want a small dose of "the ugly truths?" When we first got the sconces, I loved them. But, after putting up the range hood, I felt like the wall could definitely do without the sconces. I had a deadline to hit, so I had to install them. #Bestthingever

I'm so thankful for that deadline, because I absolutely love them now.

I'm totally that person that has to warm up to things. I don't make design decisions easily, nor do I usually love whatever we have just done right off the bat. I'm slow to change and that can cause problems sometimes. I've learned that if I love the idea of something (like these sconces or the shiplap), and I've loved it for quite some time, then its quite possible - and even likely - that I will love it in my own home/space.

Is that crazy talk? Maybe. Maybe not.

Anyway, make sure to pop over to eHow to get the full tutorial.
