When I received our new outdoor dining area on the deck, I got loadsss of questions about our lighting! Most of the illumination at night comes from the string lights, but we also have a wall sconce that helps. It’s great when we’re running out the door to take out the trash or feed the chickens. And of course, I chose a black outdoor sconce… I am so predictable! Our light fixture was gifted by Lamps Plus, but in case it’s not your style, here are a few more chic black outdoor sconces that you might love for your own home!
Illuminate Your Patio With These Chic Black Outdoor Sconces
I’m not gonna lie: choosing a black outdoor sconce is one of my easy decor tips for when you’re feeling lazy. Metallic finishes just feel like so much more effort is needed to find the right one! Whereas a black sconce basically goes with everything, including any paint color. Also, most of these lighting styles will work for any home, no matter the style. Let’s dig in!
