May 4, 2007, Newsletter Issue #62: Wall Sconce Ideas and Options

Tip of the Week

Battery-operated wall sconces are a great solution for places where it would be difficult to extend electricity -- for instance, if you're living in a rental property where you don't have permission to install new electrical boxes or switches.

For very simple battery-powered sconces, buy a set of stick-on "push" lights, then craft a shade out of attractive paper or cloth, or get creative and use whatever materials come to hand -- a cut-out section of a wicker basket, perhaps?

For a more elegant use of wall sconces, try Japanese-style lanterns on a screened porch or around a pool area.
