Living in NYC, I’m willing to try just about any renter-friendly hack to make my space feel a little more like mine. Sconces? They’re a sore subject. To me, sconces — above chandeliers, flush mounts, or table lamps — are the ultimate sign of intentional design (dare I say, quiet luxury), instantly elevating any room. But they usually require drilling and rewiring — two major renter cardinal sins. So when I spotted this stick-on wall light duo (that's currently 39% off on Amazon), looking like they were plucked from a luxury hotel, I nearly fell out of my chair.
This Amazon lighting deal reminds me a lot of the stick-on motion sensor sconces that went viral last year. Both are renter-friendly, meaning no need for an electrician — thank goodness! And while I’ll always have a soft spot for that Scandi-style minimalism, this gilded, shaded sconce duo feels more grown-up. Best of all, unlike last year’s lights, these sconces don’t appear at all like an afterthought — they look like they’ve always belonged.
Originally priced at $115.36, this elegant set is now just $69.99 — for two dimmable sconces with remote control functionality. Perfect for flanking a bookshelf, bed, or even a piece of art.
The light — or should I say lights — in question? A perfect pair to elevate any room. Some of my favorite placements include flanking a fireplace mantle, framing a favorite piece of art, or highlighting a window. They seamlessly blend in, looking like they’ve always been part of the room’s design — and that’s exactly the point. Gold is a timeless choice, but if that’s not your style, they also come in silver or black for a more pared-down, edgy vibe.
While the fixture sticks to the wall, the light itself is rechargeable — just plug it in like you would your phone. But unlike your phone, the charge lasts for months. Plus, there's a fun twist: you can change the color of the lights! The default is a soft, warm ambient glow (perfect for fall), but you can switch it up with vibrant reds, blues, or greens for a more eccentric vibe — ideal for evening entertaining. Or, for a clean, crisp look, simply set it to white.
If all of this sounds too good to be true, rest assured — 1,203 customers have collectively rated this lighting duo 4.3 out of 5 stars. At this price point, there’s really not much more you could ask for. My advice? Add to cart — asap.
More Stick-On Sconces from Amazon
These wireless Amazon wall sconces use magnetic ball technology to allow for a full 360-degree rotation — genius! Whether you’re working, reading, or highlighting a new vase, you can easily adjust the angle to suit the moment. And let’s not forget, they’re rated #1 in Amazon’s wall sconces section — impressive!
I’m a huge advocate for illuminating art. The right lighting can elevate a $15 print to gallery status. These sleek, horizontal gallery lights make it effortless — just stick them above your favorite pieces. Just don’t be surprised when guests start offering to buy your "art collection" off you.
Linen + metal = a match made in heaven. Like the lamp sconces I raved about earlier, I’m equally shocked that these are stick-ons! With three temperature options and 12 light colors to choose from, they’re perfect for setting any mood. Add in a 2-year warranty and a perfect 5/5 star rating, and this minimalist pair is a no-brainer for anyone after that warm and breezy look.
A little throwback to the lights that started it all — the Montford motion sensor sconces I mentioned that went viral last year, and for good reason. These beauties are worth their salt in every way. Sleek and stylish, they look just as at home in a casual kitchen as they do in your grandest room, standing out while fitting right in. I’m particularly drawn to the richness of the black walnut wood, though these convenient stick-on lights are also available in a crisp white ash.
A little industrial and a little dramatic, these drop-down lights are perfect for the minimalist with a taste for the finer things. Their downward-oriented light makes them fantastic for reading, ideal for hanging above sofas or armchairs. One customer even used one to illuminate their barware collection — you really can't go wrong.
I highly recommend clicking on this listing and scrolling through the images yourself — pictures don’t do it justice. If you're after an ambiance of modern luxury, this is the one. It's a true statement light, drawing you in with its elongated, glittering gold silhouette and warm glow, which dances around thanks to its unique bubble crystal construction. It looks like each one could easily cost $250 or more, making it perfect for living rooms or formal dining spaces.
