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.

This would go great in the dining room of our Atomic Victorian…
Ted Haun says
Kitchen or bedroom, I have a place for both!
Erin says
The Sputnik is just perfect to go over our kitchen table.
Lisanne Freese says
We need this light fixture in our 3rd bedroom/office! We’re making do with a round glass shade common to vintage bedrooms. We need a “period” piece for our ’68 bi-level.
Jennie Condra says
Dining room!
Shannon says
Oh this would be PERFECT for my kitchen!
Paige says
This fabulous brass light will go in the hallway to the bedrooms
Kathy says
A Sputnik light would look great in the entryway of my 1965 ranch home. The entryway opens up into the newly decorated rumpus room – complete with a glass block bar.
Patti says
This is the perfect light for my small dining area!
Robin says
I would put that beauty in my office/workroom where I sew my retro pillow covers while listening to streaming episodes of classic TV shows like Donna Reed and others whilst I work! Perfect atmosphere to create the perfect pillow for someone’s beautiful MCM pad! 🙂
