He needs a hobby.

Notice anything wrong in this picture?

Take a closer look.

I walked into the living room after showering the other day and found the husband had removed our old wall sconces beside the mantle.

Granted, I’d hated them since we moved in and always sputtered about replacing them but out of nowhere… bam!

The husband was bored, decided to get rid of them and now I have no choice.

Of course he thought we could just go to a store that afternoon and buy new ones. Not realizing that the three largest lighting stores and distributors in our area all closed after Covid.

Finding new fixtures is not as easy as it seems. We visited Lowe’s and Home Depot and were very disappointed. We stopped into a few small boutique accessory stores but the selections were extremely limited. Which means hours of online shopping and not being able to judge quality in person.

After perusing a few sites? I fear purchasing sconces is going to be reminiscent of our furniture shopping debacle.

Here are some of the choices…

Do I want lights that look like potato wedges?

I do not.

.

.

Like a sponge?

.

.

A tree branch Lord Dudley could climb?

.

.

An orange donut?

.

.

A light saber?

.

.

Or whatever the Hell that is?

No, no, no, no and Hell no.

The search continues….

  12. Hello! I’m visiting from Suz’s place (and maybe Mark My Words?) Those sconces are hilarious finds. We remodeled a bathroom three years ago and had to find two sconces and it really was difficult. I distinctly remember the light saber ones! Hope you find something soon. I think I had luck with lightingdirect.com
