Bathroom Vanity Task Lighting

8 years ago

Hello!

The mirror over the 36" vanity does not have enough wall space to place a sconce on the left side. The wall joins another wall forming a 90 degree angle. I would like to have additional lighting (task lighting) for applying makeup etc. We are planning to replace the fluorescent light above the vanity with recessed lighting. Any suggestions for lighting.

Thanks much!

If light isn't 'on switchplate' -- Or in bronze. Pull-chain switch allows you to turn the light on and off. 10-inches tall by 4-1/2-inches wide with a 6-1/2-inch pull-chain. Takes one 60-watt medium base frosted light bulb (not included). W 4.5" / D 5" / H 16.5"

I can't access my photo of adjoining wall's sconce - might work though a bit 'imperfect' and oh well. :)

Have an electrician hard-wire a lighted make-up mirror with extension arm on the wall.
