New White Ceiling Canopies ~ Glitter Stars for the Daytime

New White Ceiling Canopies ~ Glitter Stars for the Daytime

I started painting glow in the dark star ceiling canopies many years ago now! The first was painted for an oasis in the Arizona desert. The new canopies are white tulle, light as a feather and adorned with golden glitter stars for the day. The stars and tiny crescent moons shine brightly when reflected in the light of the morning or evening sun.  They are easy to pin to the ceiling or walls with the tiny white pins. They can be draped across four poster beds or any beds with frames.  The canopies are painted with glowing Milky Way inspired misty galaxies. This is the glow in the dark component, they glow all night and the stars look exactly like real...

Which Glow in the Dark Stars Are Best for Making the Most Realistic Night Sky?

The best glow in the dark stars to use when making a realistic night sky must be tiny, bright, long glowing and multi-coloured.  Tiny stars are essential! Large glow in the dark star dots and especially the old 5 pointed star shapes will not make a realistic night sky.  The stars should be bright and long lasting, they must be made from the best grade quality materials so as to glow throughout the night and fade in the dawn light just like the stars in the real sky.  Multi-coloured stars, while not as important for the actual colour, provide different levels of brightness so as to give your star ceiling maximum depth and contrast.  ⭐  I’ve been creating star stickers for over...

How to make a Realistic Glow in the Dark Star Ceiling with Glow Star Stickers

My hand-painted glow in the dark star stickers are based on the realistic star ceiling murals I used to paint on location in New Zealand. These are the best glow in the dark star stickers I've been able to create so you can have the magic of a star ceiling without having to fly me over to paint your ceiling in person. ⭐   Description: The stars are made with perfectly deigned sizes and colours for a complete night sky. They are domed and so are packed with the highest amount of glow crystals possible. During the day, the stickers are coloured white through to bright yellow. They will glow best on white backgrounds but they're also awesome on coloured surfaces. ...

Sleep like a Fairytale Princess

Do you find it super hard to sleep at night? 🛌  Stress and anxiety make it annoying especially when you’re staring at the darkness for what seems like forever and you’ve got to get up early and that makes you panic even more right?

It's a vicious cycle! 🌷 What you can add to your bedroom that will help and that you will love is this… I painted the first glow in the dark star canopy in the world over ten years ago and ever since people have told me it really helps them sleep.

the Milky Way, glow in the dark mural, New Zealand

The Milky Way

The home of our Solar System is known as the Milky Way. It is a barred spiral galaxy made from a huge collection of stars, dust and gas. When viewed from earth, the Milky Way appears in the night sky as a diffuse band of light. The billions of stars that form the galaxy seem to melt together to form a hazy glow.  Around 2,500 years ago, a Greek thinker named Democritus was the first to suggest that the Milky Way is made up of individual stars. Fast forward to the 17th century, and Galileo Galilei used his telescope to confirm this idea. He showed that the bright band we see in the night sky isn't just a blur but a...

meteor shower new zealand, shooting stars in the early morning sky

Which Meteor Showers can be seen in New Zealand?

New Zealand, being in the Southern Hemisphere, experiences different night sky views than locations in the Northern Hemisphere. This can affect the visibility of meteor showers.Meteor showers are connected with debris trails left by comets or asteroids, and these dust trails are distributed in space in a specific way. When Earth orbits the Sun, it passes through these trails during certain times of the year. Meteor showers that are more favourable for observation in the Northern Hemisphere may not be as visible or may not even occur in the Southern Hemisphere, and vice versa.Meteors appear to radiate from specific areas in the sky, creating what is known as a radiant point. Shooting stars can be seen all over the night sky, but...
