Around settling into our new home, we added this wall sconce, and it made the room feel complete at the right moment. My first impression was more cautious than my opinion after living with it for a while. The everyday routine has been a better test than any first impression. The placement took one small rethink, though I am happy with where it ended up.

Thursday guest prep made me realize this wall sconce had already become part of the living room. It works with the rest of the room instead of competing with it.

Our living room made the most sense once we hosted a small gathering; the room worked exactly the way I hoped it would. The everyday routine has been a better test than any first impression. I like it most when the room is being lived in rather than perfectly styled.
