How this hack for wireless wall lights will change your space

As a renter, the word ‘temporary’ remains an uninvited guest in home decor conversations. Just because a space isn’t a forever home, doesn’t mean you can’t incorporate personal elements. It does mean that renovation projects are off the table. That’s why elevating your space with inventive alternatives – like these wireless wall lights – can make your temporary space feel more like home.

I love this hack for wireless wall lights because it can elevate the space while adding light to windowless corners and other dark areas. Even if you own a home – it’s a great alternative to wiring, and adds a subtle glow at night. The best part may be the diversity of this DIY – it can be adapted to any light and style. I chose these wall scones. However, this hack works for all types of lights, lamps, or even cabinets.

Tutorial (with step by step instructions)

Step one: Remove the wiring from the sconce light if needed. It is okay to leave them. However, I find it easier to remove the excess wires before attaching the light to the wall.

Step two: Attach the sconce to the wall per package instructions. Usually this involves attaching to the walls with screws. Don’t beat yourself up – this is always the most frustrating step but only takes a few minutes!

Step three: Attach the puck light to the outlet edge. Press firmly to secure. My puck lights came with peel and stick adhesive. However, hot glue or construction tape would work well if your puck lights did not. Just be sure not to cover the battery opening – you want to make it easy for you to change the batteries in the future.

Step four: screw in just light putting in a light bulb – ta da! let there be light!
