I didn’t think I needed (or wanted, for that matter) a night light as an adult. We associate them with children afraid of the dark – which, thankfully, I am not – so it had simply never occurred to me to buy one. That is, until a recent, unseasonably elegant Amazon find shifted my thinking entirely – toward elegance, and toward rooms well beyond the bedroom.
The lighting idea looks a bit like a cross between the old-timey charm of a candle sconce and the glamour of a crystal chandelier, pairing a warm-toned, flame-shaped LED bulb with a cascade of glittering pendants that drape, jewelry-like, straight from the electrical outlet.
