Moon phases art is, as its name may suggest, art meant to depict the moon and its many phases, typically displaying every moon phase or the phase of the moon on a specific, meaningful date. 

Custom wall art refers to artwork or decorations that are made specifically for a particular space or individual, and are often designed and created to match the customer's preferences and style. Custom wall art can come in various forms such as paintings, murals, prints, photographs, wall sculptures, or even decals. Usually it is a framed print, however.

The process of creating custom wall art usually involves a process of the customer becoming a designer, with some help or collaboration, with the customer providing input on the desired colors, themes, and style. The customer as artist or designer will then use their ideas to create a unique piece of street map, star map, or coordinates art that is tailored to the customer's needs and preferences.

Custom wall art can be a great way to add a personal touch to your home or office, and can also serve as a statement piece that adds character and visual interest to a room. Additionally, custom wall art can be used to reflect a brand's identity in a commercial setting, or to create a specific ambiance in a hospitality or retail environment.

While our wood frames usually come mounted, our metal frames come separate to avoid damages during shipping. If you've received an unmounted framed poster, assembling it is easy! Here are some instructions to help you mount your poster into the frame:

  1. Remove the packaging from the frame and locate the small metal tabs on the back of the frame.
  2. Bend the tabs through 90º.
  3. Once all the tabs have been lifted out of the way, the rear of the frame can be removed and the picture inserted into the frame. Replace the back of the frame and bend the tabs back down to hold the frame in position. 

Don't forget to remove the protective lining on the front of the glass!
