    1. Thank you Krystine, my son really loves it.

  1. the light looks perfect in there!!!! SO good! and i love that he still has a storm trooper hiding. 😉

    1. It makes me sad to see how much he has grown up. It all passed in a blink of an eye.

  2. Love that light and it’s so perfect for his room! We are just jumping on the LEGO train and I can’t decide if it’s the best thing ever (they are the only toys he plays with) or the worst because I step on them all the time! Ha.

    1. Yup stepping on them is just not good but they sure are fun to play with. I still like them too

  3. I love that fixture ! Perfect for a boys room- great of you to teach him early how easy it is to change out a light. Xo Nancy

    1. Thanks Nancy, I don’t think he’ll be a DIYer though but at least he’ll know how to ;))

  4. Love these Sputnick light. I keep hoping I will run across a vintage one in my market shopping but I may just have to bight the bullet and buy a new like this one.

    1. I looked for a long time for a vintage one and couldn’t find one.

  5. I LOVE IT! I was thinking I wanted a sputnik in my boy’s room *great minds think alike! ;D* the space looks awesome, even if there’s a wall that still needs work. That’s life, and what every corner of my house looks like!

    1. boys rooms are the perfect place for a sputnik for sure

  6. Oh i love it Julia. You know how obsessed i am with sputniks. Its so perfect for your sons room. Its awesome!

    1. Thanks and I feel like a gold one wouldn’t have been a great fit for him.

  9. Very cool! Looking forward to your post on organizing his other side of the room!!

    1. Thanks and that might still take a while 😉

  10. It look incredible!!! Love it in that room…heck, any room! And thrilled to see your name on ‘that email’ ! 😉 xoxoxo

    1. Thanks Cassie, I’m having a total brain fart here. What email do you mean?

    1. Thanks and in this case silver is actually perfect too even though I still want my gold one. I’m not giving up on that dream yet.

    I love this light fixture, such a great addition to his room and it would be a great light in any room as well. I love the classic, but still modern design of the Sputnik lamp. It really doesn’t get any better than this. His room is looking awesome! I like that you showed him how to install a light, sharing work makes us appreciate the fruits of our labor so much more. Have a great week!

    1. Thanks, I think it would be great for any room too 😉

  12. Absolutely love it and the chrome is such a perfect choice!

    1. Thanks Summer, gold was not a good fit for him but I’m not giving up on my own dreams yet

    1. I think you need one too 😉 Thanks Pam

    LOVVVE this light fixture! I’ve been dying to have a sputnik in our house somewhere. I haven’t picked the right place yet. But I think yours is absolutely perfect in his room. I bet he loves it so much 🙂

    1. Yes he does and I’m sure you will find the right spot in your house for one.

  14. His room is awesome and the sputnik is just the icing on the cake. I would love a bed like that – it’s gorgeous. Y’all are doing a great job!

  15. That is such a gorgeous light fixture! I can see why he loves it! And I think it’s great that you taught him how to install it, that’s a good life skill to have. I plan on teaching my daughter one day, when she’s much older of course 🙂

    1. Haha, yes when she is older. I still don’t think he will be much of a DIYer. My daughter on the other hand will be for sure!

    1. Thanks and chrome is better for boys than gold I think.

    1. There’s just something about buys and this light fixture!

    This is INSANELY gorgeous, Julia!!! Just stunning. I love the fact you put it in your son’s room. Kids deserve stellar lighting too!

    I was actually trying to email you this morning but couldn’t find your email address. Would you mind to drop a note?

    1. Thanks so much Heather! And you can just reply to this email. It’s the right address 😉

  17. The light looks fantastic! I just adore sputniks in kids spaces, they’re just so much fun!!

    1. Thanks and I agree, they are so much fun!

  18. Julia, this light fixture is absolutely amazing! It looks so great in his room, and I love how eclectic the whole space is – such a good mix of modern and vintage pieces. I bet he has the coolest room of any of his friends, especially now with that new light fixture!

    1. Thanks so much Krista. He says “nobody has a bed like mine” 😉

  19. This light just might make a silver fan after all 🙂 It’s fantastic and I love the way the room is coming along!

    1. Thanks Brynne. Silver does make sense in some spaces after all 😉
