And for most of us, we can’t just easily run the wires to create a spot, and budget wise it’s not always possible to hire a professional. You can still use these light fixtures in your decor by making a small adjustment. I am going to show you how to turn a hardwired light sconce into a candle sconce.
I think Mother Nature was just showing off this year, or maybe I was just more appreciative. However it happened, I was inspired by all the beautiful blooms and wanted to enjoy them as much as possible. Today I am talking about decorating my home using flowering branches in the springtime.
This year I am adding a vintage angel theme to my dining room Christmas decor. I have always loved vintage | antique angel wings. Many were worn in holiday church processionals and others were used as theater costumes.
I plan on making six of these vintage inspired, tinsel costume wings for my dining chairs.
