How a Skylit moon map
comes together.
Four tabs, one live preview. Pick a moon, set the night, write the words, choose your finish — every change updates the print on the left in real time.
Real moon phase
The exact phase for your date and time, computed from astronomical data — not a stock illustration.
Live preview
Composition, colour, background, border — everything updates the print on the left as you tap.
Personal text
A heartfelt message and caption above the date, location and coordinates of your moment.
Save for later
Step away and come back. We'll keep your exact design ready when you are.
Choose your moon.
Composition, moon colour, background and an optional inner border. The Design tab is where the look comes together — every choice reflects on the print instantly.
Composition
Classic, Boxed, Panel or Header — four ways to pair your title and details with the moon disc.
Moon Colour
Silver for a true-to-life lunar finish, Golden for warmth, Blue for an ethereal note, or Pink for something soft and romantic.
Backgrounds
Solid Black, Navy or White for a minimal feel, or scenic backdrops like Skylit Galaxy, Starry Night and Noctis Realm.
Border
Optional inner matte line for a gallery-print finish — toggle on or off.
Four moons, one easy choice.
Silver is what you'd see through a telescope tonight. Golden brings warmth and a vintage feel. Blue leans cool and ethereal. Pink is our most romantic finish.
The phase shape stays true to the date you set — only the colour and texture changes.
Backgrounds that set the scene.
Three solid tones (Black, Navy, White) for clean wall art, or three astronomical backdrops (Skylit Galaxy, Starry Night, Noctis Realm) for a window-into-space effect.
Skylit Galaxy is the signature look. Starry Night warms it with a horizon glow. Noctis is the deepest, most painterly choice.
Pinpoint the night.
Tell us where you were and when. We compute the moon phase for that exact moment — what you'd have seen looking up at the sky.
Location
Search any city, postcode or place name. The location feeds both the phase calculation and the text on the print.
Date
The night that mattered. The moon redraws to show its actual phase on that date — first quarter, gibbous, full, anything in between.
Time
Optional precision down to the minute. Useful for the exact second a baby was born or a "yes" was said.
Hidden / shown
Time appears on the print only if you want it to — toggle Hidden / Shown right next to the field.
Write the words.
A message above the moon, an optional caption beneath, and a font picker shared across both. Need a starting point? Tap Inspiration.
Message
The headline above the date, location and coordinates — typically a phrase or quote that captures the moment.
Add Emoji
Optional. Drop a heart, star or moon glyph into the message for a personal flourish.
Caption
Optional second line beneath the message. Often a date, a place name, or a private in-joke.
Font scope
Apply your typeface to the Message, the Details, or Both. Mix a hand-script headline with a clean serif for the date.
Inspiration
A library of curated phrases — anniversaries, births, first dates, milestones. Tap one and it lands directly in the message field.
Pick your finish.
Print, framed or canvas. Five sizes. Optional ribbon wrap. The Finish tab pulls everything together with a live total before checkout.
Product
Print on 260gsm photo lustre, Framed in real wood (Black, White, Natural or Dark Brown), or gallery-wrapped Canvas with hanging kit included.
Frame Colour
Appears the moment you choose Framed. Pick from Black, White, Natural Wood or Dark Brown — the print on the left updates instantly so you can see the finished piece before checkout.
Size
A4 through to 60×80 cm. Prices update with the product type — framed costs include the frame, canvas costs include the stretcher and hanging kit.
Gift Options
None for a clean unboxing, Ribbon Wrap, Gift Wrap, or the full Bundle. The fuller set unlocks the moment you pick Framed (more options in the box, more ways to dress it up).
Buy 1, Get 2nd Half Price
Add a star map, location map or another moon map and the second one is 50% off — applied automatically at checkout.
More gift-ready when framed.
Pick Print and you'll see the basics — None or Ribbon Wrap. Pick Framed and the row expands to include Gift Wrap and a Ribbon + Gift Wrap bundle, since framed pieces are far more often given as a finished, ready-to-hang gift.
Bundle (+£4.99) is the most-chosen option for anniversaries and milestone birthdays — saves about £1 vs. picking ribbon and wrap separately.
