As I've been working through feelings of what "home" really means in my personal life, I knew I wanted to make some embroidered home pieces to share with the world - somehow that morphed into a house on the moon...obviously!
-
I stitched the center of the wooden house (handmade by a talented couple down in Florida) in my favorite French Knots.
The moon is hand sculpted, complete with craters and bumps and texture and painted in a extra shimmery blue.
I chose a truly special, extra chunky teak bowl to frame it all together that has the coolest beveled edge detail.
The deep moody gunmetal, shimmery background adds the best space-y depth to the piece and helps the blue moon truly shine. Plus, STARS!

*Teak outer frame is a used, vintage piece, which means it may have signs of wear and tear that only add to the story of the overall piece.
** It's best to hang your fiber art piece in a place that doesn't get direct sun and I don't recommend touching the fibers.

D E T A I L S:
- 10.75" wide (outer Teak frame)
- 5" deep
- fully hand stitched in French knots
- keyhole on the back allows you to hang the sculpture flush, from a single nail or screw
