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.

Patricia says
I would put this adorable Sputnik lamp in my dressing room. It has mirrors to spare, but horrible horrible lighting! I would love to see the light dance off of the mirrors and light up my room!
Kelly M says
OMGosh!! I have wanted a light such as this for the longest time. I have a 1960 Shasta Airflyte camper, and how perfectly COOL this light would look above my dinette table. 🙂
Jay says
I’ll take the chrome fixture, please.
Tonia says
I would love to have a sputnik in my entry or hallway, the size of this one would be perfect for that. Thanks!!
Laura Weismann says
I would give this lovely light to my mad mid century friend !!!
Nacia says
We are converting the awkwardly shaped and small 4th bedroom in our 1950’s brick home into a dressing room for moi. This would make a great addition!
juju says
This would be perfect in the hallway of my recently purchased 1959 midcentury modest granny ranch!
Cortney says
Would love to have that for my bedroom. My current light fixture is so blah!
Shambie says
This light would be FABULOUS hanging from the middle rafter of my zen shack!
Laura says
This would take care of the last light fixture to be replaced in our part way renovated home, in the the back door entryway.
