Description
This glow in the dark hanging mobile brings a crescent moon and a scatter of stars to a child's room, ready to shine softly once the lights go out. Two plastic rings, one above the other, carry the shapes on fine threads, so the moon and stars hang at different heights. The moon has a peaceful face along its inner curve, and the stars are a mix of large and small, for a lively, layered look. Once hung, it measures about 70cm long and about 35cm across, enough to fill the space above a bed without crowding it.
We think it suits a child's bedroom or playroom best, giving a calm sight to gaze up at while settling down for the night. By day the pale shapes stand out clearly against a dark or coloured wall, and after dark they take on their soft glow. It would look just as at home over a reading nook or a cosy den, anywhere a touch of night-time magic is welcome. A toy and a decoration in one, it makes a thoughtful gift and a charming way to bring a starry bedtime theme into a room.
The mobile is made from plastic and is very light, so it is easy to hang. To get it glowing, expose it to a light source first: daylight from a window or a lamp in the evening will do, and the moon and stars will glow once the room is dark. It hangs from a small hook at the top of its central cord, so pick a fixing point where it can hang freely and clear of anything it might catch on. Dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth to keep it looking its best. For a cosy routine, let the bedside lamp shine on it before bedtime, so it is ready to glow the moment the light goes off.
