Sconces, Sconces, and More Sconces

We've been hunting high and low for the right sized sconces for the dining room.

Too Tall.  Too Wide.  Too ornate.  Too simple. Too many arms. Arm(s) too high.  Arm(s) too low.  Too much bling.  Not enough bling.

Finding the "Goldilocks Zone" was proving to be really hard.

While at John's getting parts for the chandelier (another story to come) early this week, we asked about sconces that might coordinate.  He replied, "Unfortunately, these are spoken for, but they'd be perfect."

He was right.  They were perfect.

And when we were back the next day for the chandelier parts he said, "The guy who wanted these was just in.  He's changed his mind."

They converted the sconces from candles to electric and we picked them up the next day.

I installed them that night.

Like I said, Thursday was a busy day.
