Once you've selected a design that speaks to you, it’s time to customise the details that make your star map uniquely yours. At Skylit Studio, we offer a variety of elements to tailor your star map precisely to your liking:

• Constellations: Choose to display the constellations to add an educational or mythical layer to your star map. You can toggle the constellations on or off depending on your preference.
• Graticules: Add or remove the coordinate grid lines for an added complexity look or to enhance the scientific feel of your map.
• Constellation Names: Opt to include the names of the constellations for clarity and a touch of elegance, or keep the design simple by leaving them out.
• Map Shape: Select the shape that best fits your style or the occasion. Choices include the classic circular globe, a globe encased by a decorative compass design for a vintage touch, or a romantic heart shape perfect for anniversaries or Valentine’s Day gifts.
• Borders: Decide if you want a sleek border around your star map. Borders can add a refined finish and help your design stand out, especially when framed.

Customising these elements allows you to create a star map that not only marks a special date but also completely aligns with your personal or gift-giving needs. Each choice you make adds a unique dimension to your final print, ensuring it’s a true reflection of your personal style or the message you wish to convey.

Now that your design is dialed in, the next critical step is setting the specific location, date, and time that will dictate the celestial scene for your star map. This precision ensures your star map accurately reflects the sky at that pivotal moment.

• Location: Pinpoint the precise location that holds special meaning to you. Whether it’s where you proposed, the spot of your first date, or any other place with sentimental value, the chosen location is where your star map will anchor its celestial display.
• Date: Select the date that marks your memorable occasion. This could be an anniversary, a birthday, or any significant day whose memory you wish to immortalize under the stars.
• Time: Setting the time adds another layer of precision to your star map, showing the sky at that exact moment. While this detail enhances accuracy, you have the option to display or hide the time on the final print, depending on your preference. If you choose to include it, the time can give further context to the moment captured. If not, the focus remains purely on the visual beauty of the stars.

Each of these settings contributes to creating a star map that not only captures a moment but does so with both artistic flair and astronomical accuracy. This attention to detail ensures that your star map is a true representation of your special occasion, tailored to reflect your personal story against the backdrop of the night sky.

With your star map design and text customization complete, the final step involves selecting the specific product details that will bring your creation to life. This includes choosing the finish, size, and frame for your star map, ensuring that it perfectly suits your space and aesthetic preferences.

• Product Finish: Decide whether you want your star map framed or unframed. A framed finish enhances the presentation and durability of your star map, making it ready to hang or gift upon arrival. If you prefer a minimalist look or plan to custom frame it yourself, choose 'No frame.'
• Size: Skylit Studio offers a variety of sizes to best match your display area:
• Choose the Frame: If you've opted for a framed finish, select from our available frame colors to complement your decor:
