Personlised Star Map Print Review from Greater Skies

In today’s post I’m going to introduce you to star map print company, Greater Skies. They make personalised constellation maps that make the perfect gift or home accessory.

There are certain moments in your life that will stay with you forever, certain times you want to hold onto and commemorate. Maybe for you its the day you graduated, the day you got married or the moment your child was born. I know that bringing Elian into our little world and starting our life as a family is a moment that changed my life forever, and one I want to commemorate in our home.

Recently I was contacted by Greater Skies and asked if I would like to review one of their star map prints. Having seen one of their items on Instagram before (whilst nosing at interior bloggers stunning homes) I knew that it was something that would suit the style of our home well. We love cosmic prints and something a bit different to the norm so this was right up our street.

Personalised Star Map Prints make the perfect gift

A personalised star map print makes the perfect gift for all sorts of occasions.

It is a beautiful gift as a wedding present for the couple who doesn’t have a gift list. If they’ve already been living together a while they don’t need household goods like kettles and dinner sets. You can either date it on their wedding day, the day they got engaged, or if you know it the day their stars aligned and they first met!

First anniversary gift is paper. A star map print would be the perfect thing for your significant other or for your friends anniversary gift. Keeping it traditional but with a fun and modern twist.

The birth of a child or a childs christening can also be the perfect opportunity for a customised star print map. It is likely to be something cool in their room and something they will be able to treasure for years to come.

What we think of our Greater Skies Star Map

We ordered the Night Sky print as we loved the all over dark print and really thought it made not only the star map but also the text stand out more. And it really does, the black print looks great against our white walls and is really eye catching. Its a talking point when anyone spots it in our house as it is pretty unusual.

The detail and clarity of the print is beautiful. The map is printed on 260gsm grade paper, with archival ink, so you can rest assured the print is made to last for years to come. Plus it won’t be bleached by sun light so you don’t need to worry where you hang it in your home.

The only thing I would change is the framing options. At present there is only one option, which is the thin black frame. Although we do infact have black frames in most of our rooms, we actually rather a slightly thicker black stained wood, or a white wood option.

Overall we love the print, and can see it being part of our decor for a long time to come.
