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!

Growing up I have always said that I would love to find a Tulip Table and a Sputnik Chandelier or Lamp. Well, at 48
I finally found my Tulip Table and I LOVE it!
So back to the question. I would hang it right above my awesome Tulip Table!
Thank you for the chance! ????

above my baby grand piano in my small dining room turned music hall
Sarah C. says
The kitchen of my 1955 ranch!! Yippee!
Mandy says
I would put it in my entry way. We are slowly but surely MODing our traditional 1976 house. 😉
Ginger says
It would go in my living room!
Tanya says
Oh I would so put this in my entry to replace the Early American wanna be in place now. I tried smacking that light fixture with a broom handle once to break it but my mother in law must have cursed it before she died because the broom just bounced off. She knew how much I hated that light Every visit she’d look at it lovingly. (But would never take it as a gift. Because it is ugly.)
Christina says
It would look great over my kitchen peninsula! At that price, one will probably end up there anyway 🙂
Mari says
In my hallway! Groovy, baby!
Tom Kuersteiner says
I would use the light in my Kitchen, In a 1957 home right above the back door and before going downstairs to the basement. This area needs an accent and more light.
Lindsay says
Just put a new vintage inspired powder room in. Complete with hole for ceiling light. This would be perfect!!
