What happens here

Connect the wiring for the new wall sconces to the electrical boxes installed in Step 2. Secure the sconce fixtures to the wall, ensuring they are level and properly aligned. Test each sconce to confirm functionality. For the window, clean the glass thoroughly. Carefully measure and cut the blackout film to size, ensuring a precise fit. Apply the film to the window, smoothing out any air bubbles with a squeegee. To fully seal out light, apply black caulk along the edges of the window frame where the film meets the trim, making sure to tape off the trim first for clean lines. This creates a completely dark environment essential for a home theater.

Goal: This step involves installing the new wall sconces and applying blackout film to the window to ensure complete darkness for an optimal viewing experience.

What they say

Hide

our wires. Here's the sick sconce lights. I think they're called sconce lights. Um, pendant lights. I got them on Amazon. If you like them, first of all, I love this color brass cuz sometimes it comes as like gold. Shoots up and down. I'm probably replace these lights cuz the bulbs cuz they're not dimmable and we need them to be dimable. So, look how dope that's going to look. Shot up here. Shoot down here. We just need to hook up our switch. I got a dimmable switch. This one says it also lights up, so you get a seat in the middle of the night. But let's see what we can come up with. I am hoping I'm doing this correctly. The diagram is not that clear. And the switch can do both single pole and uh three-way. So, [sighs] I got my common wires together. I got my line coming in the bottom. That's hot. I got my load going to the red. And then I believe the red and white is for a three-way switch. So all right, moment of truth. If I screwed up this wiring or not. Holy smokes. This is the most perfect lighting that I was envisioning. Not too bright, not overwhelming, just a little accent. This is doing it absolutely phenomenal. 50 bucks on Amazon. I think 60 for the pair. Best choice I've made so far. This is perfect. Oh, it's perfect. But now that the lights are done, let's start blacking out this window because we're going to have a projector and projectors need it to be dark. Let's get into it. You staring at my shirt? I love how this Mr. to build a t-shirt fits me. I mean, good luck finding other merch that fits. Hugs your arms, shoulders perfectly, nice and fitted, doesn't shrink. I mean, unless you want it to. Uh, if you want one, I'll be nice. I'll link a QR right here. Click it. Buy one for yourself. Buy for a loved one. Buy them for Christmas, Thanksgiving. They'll love it. I'm 6'2. I weigh between about 205. Uh, this is a large. We got some blackout film. Thanks, Amazon. Is it as wide as my window? Oh, that's perfect. I don't even know if I'm gonna need to cut the sides. I will probably. Uh, okay. So, clear film comes off.
