Custom moon phases that capture the exact phase of the moon on your special date, hand painted in any colour. Whether a birthday, Mother's Day, Father's Day, first date, wedding anniversary, adoption date, divorce date, moving date, date began FMT / EHT, or special milestone in you or a loved one's life, commemorate the occasion with a totally unique and one-of-a-kind hand painted phase of the moon.ย ย
PROCESS:
1. Select the colour paper you prefer - either white watercolour paper, or black watercolour paper.ย
2.ย Decide on a date (eg. - October 11th, 2012) and include it in your order.
3. Choose a colour for your moon. You can chose from the popular colours listed, or message me and I can work on a custom colour just for you (see "CUSTOM COLOURS" section below).
4.ย I will research the exact illumination for your date (eg. 40% illuminated waning crescent), and will provide a mock-up of your moon for approval so you know what to expect.
5. I will begin painting your moon phase to your specifications only once I receive approval.
CUSTOM COLOURS:
If you have a custom colour you would like your moon to be, send me a photo of your ideal colour. It could be anything; a vintage box of tea, a childhood sock, your child's favourite t-shirt, or even an old bra. Zero judgement here. I will try my best to match your custom colour perfectly.
PRODUCTION TIME:
Depending on the time of year, it can take between 1-3 business days from when I receive your approval.ย
MEASUREMENTS:
- Page: 30.5cm H x 23cm W (12in. H x 9in. W)
- Moon: diameter of 15cm / 6in.
MEDIUM:
Acrylic paint on watercolour paper.
PERFECT AS A:
Christmas gift, birthday gift, wedding gift, first wedding anniversary gift (paper), housewarming gift, engagement gift, gift for the birth of a child, Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, Galentine's Day, for your BFF, baptism or christening gift, or a gift just for you. Go on, treat yo self.ย
PACKAGING:
Every hand painted moon is carefully placed in an eco-clear protective bag (that is a completely compostable alternative to cellophane), and supported with an individual piece of cardboard to keep it flat. It is placed in an easy-tear rigid mailer made from 70% recycled material, and sealed with biodegradable tape to make sure it's extra safe on its journey.
Customer Reviews
This is my second purchase from Alex and honestly at this point Iโm looking for excuses to buy more! โจ Alex has once again blown my mind with the quality, detail and care that went into this moon. This was purchased to be given to a bride from her bridesmaid on her wedding day. Alex understood exactly what colour we had in mind and delivery was sooo quick. ๐
Loveeeee our wedding anniversary moon! I was pleasantly surprised by how quick we received it! Alex is a pro, for sure! The little details make this a precious one-of-a-kind piece that we will treasure for a long time!
I have now purchased not one, not two.. but FIVE moon paintings from Alex on three separate occasions. Two moons for myself (my kids birthdays), two as gifts for my nephews (their birthdays) and most recently, one as a gift for my parents upcoming milestone wedding anniversary. I pick custom colours each time and end up giving Alex a jibberish description of what Iโm thinking for colour and somehow, she perfects what I see in my head every time. Sheโs a delight to work with and the final product is unique and beautiful.
Absolutely incredible piece of artwork. I placed an order with Alex for my partnerโs Birthday to commemorate our sons Birth. I wasnโt sure what colour to go for so Alex really helped me figure out what what work best. I was so impressed when it arrived, the detail is amazing and it feels like a really meaningful gift. My partner was blown away and it now takes pride of place in his office. Thank you so much x
A few years ago I received the most unexpected and delightful gift: a custom moon painting from Alex. It completely took me by surprise, and I was truly in awe when I saw it.
The idea itself is so unique and thoughtful - a hand-painted moon capturing the date and time of my birthday. It's the perfect personalised gift for anyone who loves the moon, or simply appreciates something truly special and one-of-a-kind.
Even more impressive is that the painting itself is beautifully done. The details are stunning, and it's clear that a lot of care and skill went into creating it. This is a piece I will truly treasure for years to come.
