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 look gorgeous in my master bedroom which with a bright orange accent wall has a bit of the funky 70’s feel to it.
cindi says
In the foyer over the flagstone entry floor! Whoo hoo!
Adrienne Soule says
Fantastic piece for our new house. It needs a “kapow” moment in the front hall! I think actually a runway of these down the hall would be fun, so if I won, I’ll probably buy two more to complete the look! 😀
Beverly says
This will go in the foyer area to replace a light fixture I’ve loathed since I bought the house. Tres chic!

Man, I know EXACTLY where I would put this baby! At the front of our very long hallway in our mid-century Ranch home! And since it is soooo very loooong, I’d buy another one to put at the end of the hallway. Golly, it’d be spectacular!
Thank you for the consideration!!

Moose & squirrel approve of the people’s glorious revolutionary Sputnik light, da.
Katie says
We have a weird, tiny ceiling fan from the 90s above my jukebox that I would LOVE to replace with one of these beauties!
Nate says
Entries close on the 13th? This would be an awesome birthday present! I think the perfect place would be in my hallway!
Allison says
Ooh! Ooh! Me! Me! *waves hand frantically*
Too needy? Well, I’d love one anyway.
JeffK says
Count me in! I have a hall that cries for one of these.
