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!

I would put the chrome version in my kitchen!
Jana says
I need a small Sputnik in my life! We just bought our DREAM house in a small town. It’s all original 1956 interior (except) the horrible lighting above the informal dining nook, this is exactly what I have been looking for to complete our new home
Roma says
This light would transform my dining room, which desperately needs better lighting!
Our glum sconces need help…
Julie says
I would love this fixture for my 1961 ranch home! I would either put it in my kitchen, or my rumpus room!
Dawn E. Owen says
I would use this in the silver version in my hallway which has a bare bulb just hanging down from it right now. it desperately needs something and I just had not found the perfect fixture but this would be it.
Kelly M. says
Ooooh, that satin brass baby would go up in my entry way! It’s dreamy!
Nicole Oliveira says
I just did a renovation on my kitchen after a flood we had (can’t want to share with my retro friends here when complete!). So I thinking this light would look fab above my drain board sink with dishmaster!
Lynn says
I would use the chrome fixture to replace my hall fixture!!
Kara Sircy says
This would be a stunner in our hallway. Our kids could all see it from their rooms!
David Colle says
I would use in my Dining Room, I live in a 1958 ranch style that wasn’t wired for enough Lighting in my opinion!
