DIY WALL CANDLE SCONCES

DIY WALL CANDLE SCONCES

Hey guys! Today I’m showing you how to make a really easy modern DIY wall sconce. You won’t believe how easy it is. Let’s go.

CUT LIST AND MATERIALS–
1×6 and 6′ long-select pine (I went with 20″ long – cut yours to the size you prefer
Cut the size of your shelf with the leftover 1×6 (I used 5 1/2″ )
1/8 drill bit
Wood Clamps
Drill Gun
10 screws 1 1/4 long
Drywall screws
Wood Stain-Ebony
Titebond Wood Glue
Speed Square

DIRECTIONS-

Measure and mark where you want your (5 1/2″) shelf to be (I went to 6 3/8 from the bottom)

Wood Glue your shelf down using your clamps to secure it

Let dry

Using your 1/8 drill bit, create holes in the back

Drill your screws into the holes to secure the shelf

Stain and let dry. This is my favorite stain in Dark Walnut. 

HOW TO AFFIX TO WALL-

  • Drill a pilot hole in center (2  3/4 in.)
  • Attach to the wall with drywall screws
  • Use anchors if needed

Wood Stain-Ebony | Titebond Wood Glue | Wood Clamps | Battery Operated Candles | Speed Square
