  • I recently had the opportunity to install sconce lighting on both side of the bed is a customer's home. She picked one of the light up on the second hand market, and a second from a lighting distributor. This are not cheap lights, by any means.
    We were very fortunate that there were electrical outlets directly below where we wanted to install the sconces, and there were clear stud bays straight up! It was just a matter of removing the old receptacles and the boxes, fishing a new wire leg up to the hole we cut in the drywall. connecting everything together, and she now has accessible reading lights on each side of the bed!
    She says this is going to encourage her to read more to her daughter, if that isn't the best reason to install new sconce lights, then I do not know what is!
    Thanks for watching Dad It Yourself DIY!

    best video on this I have seen. Electrical always made me nervous. I put in a bathroom light during a self/solo remodel. So happy. thank you

    Thank you. I’m trying to do the same but not lucky enough to have outlets directly under where I want the fixture😔

      I haveva buddy @everydayhomerepairs who did a video about bringing electrical over. Using his video and mine (especially if you have a switched outlet) you can do it. Here is his video

    I have the same exact install situation. Is it possible to just add the romex wire and box for the light fixture without having to cut out and replace the outlet box? Thank you!

    • @DadItYourselfDIY
      @DadItYourselfDIY  2 місяці тому +1

      It's possible, but the time it would take to fish the wire into the old box, it's just easier to replace it.
