Bathroom Wall Sconces
Introduction: If you are thinking about a
bathroom upgrade consider the light fixtures too.
Bathroom lighting has taken on a whole new look
with wall sconces. Bathroom wall sconces can really
change a passé bathroom into a bathroom of
elegance.
In recent years wall sconces have become the
bathroom lighting of choice because of their
ability to light up the bathroom interiors in the
best possible way.
Bathroom wall sconces are the choice above
all other lighting fixtures when it comes to
selecting light fixtures for the bath interiors.
Bathroom designers and DIY home improvement
remodelers are installing wall scones over and
above all other bathroom lighting fixtures
available. The demand is so high that lighting
supply centers are having difficulty keeping up
with the demand.
Installing a wall sconce is quite easy for most DIY
homeowners with a little bit of electrical
experience. You really do not need to be a
professional electrician to install a wall sconce.
All it takes is to install an “after work”
electrical box in the desired location and snaking
a wire to it from a light switch.
The “after work” box slips into the wall hole and
fits flush to the wall. The actual light sconce
mounts to the box with two mounting screws. Or you
can select a plug in wall sconce rather than
installing additional wiring. The plug in sconce
has an on/off switch at the base of the sconce.
Wall sconces come in many different designs and
styles that vary from single
bulb
to multiple bulbs. In most bathrooms there are at
least two wall sconces either mounted on different
walls or on each side of a mirror. Mirrored wall
sconces have a reflection mirror behind the light
bulb that provide a lot more lighting than regular
light fixtures. Bathroom wall sconces can be used
for vanity lighting in place of ceiling lights.
Most of these fixtures use very low wattage light
bulbs so the amount of energy consumption is a lot
less than regular bathroom lights.
If you are considering a
bathroom remodeling project consider changing the
entire bathroom lighting design to include wall
sconces. They will give your bathroom a whole new
look of elegance.
