12 In-Style Plug-In Wall Sconces From Amazon

Today I’m sharing some favorite picks for affordable, plug-in wall sconces from Amazon!

Lighting Tips

One of the most common issues I see in home design is inadequate lighting. Did you know you actually need 3 layers of lighting? Ambient lighting, accent lighting, and task lighting make a home feel balanced and comfortable at every time of day.

• Ambient lighting is the primary source of light in a room. This is your general overhead lighting that is located centered in the room. This lights up the room so that you can safely and easily navigate it.

• Accent lighting lights up all the shadows that ambient lighting can’t reach. These are places like fireplaces, corners, bookshelves, reading nooks, etc. This type of lighting also highlights a feature in your home like artwork, decor, or an architectural detail like a fireplace.

• Task lighting is direct lighting for specific functions. This is illuminates a small area and makes a task easier to accomplish. A lamp near a couch for reading, under-cabinet lights in a kitchen for food prepping, a desk lamp for doing paperwork.

One of the most comment items I put in my custom designs are wall sconces! These are an easy way to add accent or task lighting to a space, and they can make a fun statement in your home too.

A few of my favorite spots for wall sconces are

• over nightstands
• around a fireplace
• above or beside large art
• above a sink
• above open shelves
• or nested above a hutch or cabinet.

Since I link wall sconces so often, I want to round up my fav plug-in wall sconces from Amazon. No hardwiring needed! You can strategically hide the cords behind plants, art, or furniture. Or let it be part of a casual look!
