Sconces can have the highest impact on an interior design. A sconce light will bring a forgotten area back to life with stunning allure. Via Home Lighting Advice, here are some tips to mastering the art of sconce lighting in order to achieve illumination and more.

Know where you are going to place the sconce and consider the height and length of the wall. As a general rule, a wall sconce should be placed roughly at eye-level (about 60 inches from the floor) and 6 feet away from each other.  When you go to look at sconces at Light Innovations, take a photo of the corner or wall that needs lighting to refer to while in the showroom. Before you decide on a sconce, see if it admits the desired light by testing the sconce in the showroom. Think about whether the sconce will add architectural interest. Don’t be afraid to take this as an opportunity to add bold color and texture. Think of ways you can express your personal style with a sconce that evokes a vintage visage, modern twist or whimsical touch.  Too see a wide selection of sconces that range from simple to simply artistic, browse the Light Innovations online store.
