Update: Contest now closed. Congratulations to our two winners, Patti and Danielle. Thanks, everyone, for playing. ENTRIES NOW CLOSED. Practical Props — rulers of the Sputnik light galaxy — has just launched a new ceiling light version of this iconic lighting style. We asked them if they wanted to participate in a giveaway, and they jumped at the chance. In this giveaway, your chances are doubled — because they are providing two lights. Yup, there will be two winners @ win one light.
How to enter to win a Practical Props Sputnik ceiling light:
- To win, you must be a subscriber to our newsletter (Yes, this is “what’s in it for the blog” — you can opt out at any time after the contest ends, or continue on for the stories and because our goal is to schedule a giveaway every two weeks.)
- To enter, use the Comment field on this post below and tell us where you would use your Sputnik ceiling light. Or whatever, we’re easy.
- One entry per person. U.S. delivery addresses only.
- Entries close on Thursday, Nov. 12, around 5 p.m. Eastern — that is, we will close the Comments field at that time.
- Prize: There will be two winners. Each will receive one CF11 Starlight fixture sent directly from Practical Props. Winners can choose either the chrome or satin brass finish.
- Pam will choose the winners via the Random Number Generator at random.org. In this case, we will spin twice, once for each winner. We will email each person. [Tip: Be sure you enter your email address correctly in the email field of the Comment form.] Each winner will have five business days to respond. If we do not hear from them, we will choose the next person who commented. Lather, rinse, repeat. We will post the winners’ first name as soon as all is confirmed.
- Terms of use apply.
Many thanks, Practical Props!
And congrats to Mary, winner of our last giveaway, the 50th anniversary Lava Lamp.

I’d use this to replace the (non-original) ceiling fixture in the foyer of our condo in the mid-century high-rise.
Patricia Gallo says
I would put it at the top of the stairway in my mid-century Cape to make it more “modern”!
Atomic-Ken says
I would use this in a small entry hallway! So cool
Elaine Sokoloff says
It would be a most delightful addition to my office in my mid-century home!
Ryan S. says
I’m preparing to install textured MCM style wallpaper to my front entrance hallway. I’d use the silver one there. It would look stunning and be the first thing my guests would see whenever they fine to visit.
Angela McKennie says
I would put it in the living room of our 1953 ranch.
Kim H says
Absolutely love this light and would proudly display it in my dining room! Thanks!!
Allison says
Gorgeous! Perfect for over the open stairway!
Wen says
This would go in my bedroom. Looks just like the one my grandmother had in her home!
Southern Rebelle says
Just found some fabulous mid-century, atomic age inspired wall paper to hang in our foyer for our cute little 60’s ranch. This would be the perfect feature piece for this area!! I just love it!!!
