Does your home need more romance? Do you want to add relaxing touches? Are you looking for a litte fire? Turn a wall into candle-based art using large sconces in a deep finish, or go simple with lighter finished sconces. You can find a candle sconce to fit any size wall, and if you get a scented candle or two, you can have fun with fragrance. (Of course, always monitor burning candles for safety.) Here are some great ways to use sconces in your home.
Pretty up the powder room. Candles add a beautiful touch to your powder room, and scented candles can keep the room fresh and fragrant during a party. Install sconces on either side of your mirror or above the toilet so there's no chance of anyone knocking them over.

I adore this wall sconce. It has a great shape that works with any style, and the candle is surrounded by glass for safety. I would love to use a pair in a powder room or foyer, on either side of a mirror.
Create drama with multiples. Buy a few of the same sconce to fill more of the wall so you can get a lot of twinkling when the lights are turned off.

Romance a master bathroom. Turn a bathtub wall into a flickering vision of light. Install multiple sconces or a large iron wall one, turn off the lights and enjoy a relaxing bath by candlelight.

Add this large wall sconce to a nautical theme. It will also look great in any seaside space. Use bright yellow candles for a big, bold look.

Emphasize a focal point. Increase the appearance of your artwork by installing a pair of candle sconces on either side. Choose a finish that complements the art. To keep the candles from stealing the spotlight in cases like this, choose white or off white.
