UPDATE: Contest closed. We spinned (spun?) the random and have a winner: Congrats to Lisa, whose number came up and who promptly claimed our prize. Come back every other Friday for our next giveaway!
Howdy, hudee — it’s our first giveaway of the new year. Yesterday we wrote about how gobsmacked Pam was, when she saw the Ikea PS 2014 pendant lamp for the first time in person. Today — you can enter to win one of these lights, provided by Ikea.
How to enter to win an Ikea PS 2014 pendant 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 might hang this light. Or whatever, we’re easy.
- One entry per person. U.S. lower 48 states only.
- Entries close on Friday, Jan. 22, around 5 p.m. Eastern — that is, we will close the Comments field at that time.
- Prize: There will be one winner. The winner will receive the light in the color of their choice directly from Ikea.
- Pam will choose the winners via the Random Number Generator at random.org. We will email each person. [Tip: Be sure you enter your email address correctly in the email field of the Comment form.] The 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 winner’s first name as soon as all is confirmed.
- Terms of use apply.
Many thanks to Ikea for providing the light for this giveaway!
And congrats to Richard, winners of our last giveaway, a vintage Christmas ornament wreath from Georgia Peachez.

Just bought a 1957 custom ranch outside of Ann Arbor. It has what was then the ‘new recessed lighting’, except in the breakfast area of the kitchen, so this light would look great in that area. Love your site since we are super into period homes, having owned a 1914 Prairie Style mansion, a 1916 Colonial, a 1918 Craftsman, a 1881 one room schoolhouse, a 1939 Art Deco and now our recent purchase…all in the Midwest! Your site has given us ideas and resources, so thank you!

In my entry hall in my 1945 old Florida house…….or maybe in the dining room.
Love this light!

A dear friend of mine has virtually NO lighting in the common area of his apartment and I think he’d love it. Reminds me of Star Wars! 🙂
