5 years ago
last modified: 5 years ago

Does anyone know how to install this art light? it plugs into an outlet. Thanks for any tips.

    Remove the screw and take off the cover. Is there a bracket inside into which you could insert screws to attach the lamp to the wall? You'd have to drill holes through the back of the lamp for the screws -- which seems odd.

    IKEA's Brynet picture light (instructions) attaches this way but it has pre-drilled holes in the back of the lamp for the screws.
