If you leave it as is, yes, they need to be plugged in. I later added a lamp switch. ( I have a tutorial coming soon!) Thanks for reading!

Thanks for the tutorial! Question: how are they turned on and off? Do they have to be plugged in to be on?

Liquid nails would definitely work! I am just too impatient to wait for it to dry. Thank goodness for nail filler, right !?

Some people are put off by the sight of nails & screws on & in a project….

My Idea?

Ok maybe not MY idea, but this idea will work.

Liquid Nails.

For attaching the 1×2’s to the 1×4, use Liquid Nails or some other adhesive of the same type. The 1×2’s do not appear to be holding anything as far as weight goes, so Liquid Nails type of adhesive will work there.

As for the rest of the project, I would not use Liquid Nails type adhesive as the only source of fastener.

You will have the same fantastic look, without the “imperfections” of the nail fasteners. : )
