DIY Lighted WallSconce

I had an idea for a custom Lighted wall sconce. Had some metal sconces that I hadn’t planned on using but decided to build and stain some wood pieces to hang them on.

Cut Boards

I used 1x4x8 boards and 1/4 inch panel board. I cut to desired size and nailed together using 5/8 inch nails.
