We've all been there. You're in a college dorm, or an apartment, or a house, and you can't drill holes. But you hate the ceiling lighting, probably because it's overly harsh and bright and not cozy at all.If you want to put up a wall sconce without drilling holes, this is the one. Here's how you do it.You will need:One [1] set of these sconcesEight [8] 3M command strips, rated for 5 lbsA sewing needle and threadThe command strips are rated for 5 lbs. I used 4 strips for each sconce and distributed them evenly in each corner of the back. Is it overkill? Yes. But I wanted them on securely. You can use fewer if you're inclined to.Before we begin, be aware that command strips do NOT work if your wall is painted. It will just fall off the paint and destroy your wall. Read the fine print before you complain that command tape and other similar double-sided wall tape solutions are crap. They're not. You just have the wrong surface for this product. But if your wall is wood, plaster, or concrete, then you will be fine.1. Assemble the sconce. Do NOT attach the silver-grey metal bracket that's used to screw it in, because it adds unnecessary weight and you won't be using it for this project. You just want to assemble the lampshade around the white frame. Install the wire and screw the bulb holder in place, but do NOT put the lightbulb in yet.2. Pick up a command strip. The strip has two sides: one is blue, one is white. The white-papered side is clearly marked for the wall. Peel off the BLUE papered side and stick the command strip onto the back of the sconce. Place four command strips onto the back of each sconce. Make sure you arrange the command strips VERTICALLY, not horizontally, on the sconces. DO NOT REMOVE THE WHITE-PAPERED SIDE YET.3. Take out your needle and thread. Look at the picture I took of the command strip, which I have drawn on with a black sharpie: there is an L-shape in the top left corner and the bottom right corner. This is where you are going to sew the command strip to the lampshade. (The reason we're not stitching the entire command strip is because it will make it almost impossible to remove the paper if we do.) If you look at another one of my pictures, you can see how it looks when sewn on (I used red thread so it's very visible). I recommend doing 4 stitches total, for each corner: 2 stitches down, then 2 stitches to the side.4. When making these stitches, you need to go over each stitch multiple times so that when you rip off the paper, it doesn't rip out the stitches. I reinforced each stitch 3 times before tying it off.5. Now you can rip off the paper. Be aware that as you take off the paper, the corners where the stitches are might not come off/be too firmly stitched down. THAT IS FINE! Leave them! Just take off as much paper as you can.6. Press the sconce to the wall and run your fingers over the back to firmly press the command strips against the wall. When you let go, it should hold.7. Wait 30 minutes before installing the lightbulb. This is because the command strips benefit from time undisturbed to properly bind to the wall. It's also a good sanity check, to make sure that it's actually secured in place. That way, if you did this wrong-- you did the process wrong, or you ignored my warning to make sure that you're using this on the right kind of wall surface-- you won't end up with a shattered lightbulb on the floor. So wait 30 minutes.8. Install the lightbulb. You will have to place the bulb in from above, so you may need a step-stool.9. Plug sconce into the wall.10. Turn it on.Enjoy!

I love this set of 2 AVV Wall Sconces. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. Easy Setup and Mount. These sconces look just as advertised. They will go in my guest bedroom. I would purchase again.

these put out a lot of light. Easy to install. Just wish it would remember which setting was last used, but for the price you just have to deal with it.

We just needed a plug-in wall lamp to illuminate a dark hall. You have to put the lamps together and once you do they look decent. I don't love that up close you can see indentations in the shade where the clips hold on the shade to the frame.For the price, they're decent and they provide good light.

I am very happy with my lamps they bring in simplicity and a touch of elegance at the same time. Love my choice.

These lights are just as described. Easy to set up they are a plug in, you can always get the track that sticks to the wall to hide the cord. But not super noticeable. I love the different color and brightness levels. One on either side of the bed is perfect for reading or just extra light in the bedroom.

It no longer turns on. Only lasted 10 months
