Don't really know why it would be so hard to go from the ceiling to the wall. Just poke holes where you want the wiring to go through about your vanity. Then go up in the ceiling and (you might have to add some wiring length), but then take it down between the wall joist and hook your wires together. Presto, new lighting fixture. I'm always redoing something in my walls...hubby isn't thrilled, but too bad!!!
