Star projector

Picture this: Your crush invites you over for dinner, and, when you arrive, you're greeted with a glass of wine, Sigur Ros on the iPod, and this star projector. How amazing would that be?

I'd love it for quiet married nights at home, too. Would be a fun way to eat burritos and watch Curb your Enthusiasm, haha.

  1. This Star Projector reminds me of one of my favorite movies! If you haven't seen the movie Adam yet, you should check it out! It's wonderful and he has a star projector in his living room!

    I've always wanted to make love under the stars but doing it outside in the dark freaks me out (bugs) so this would be a good alternative. I love love LOVE the price. Thanks Joanna.

  6. This is so beautiful!

    And it reminds me of the ep of Friends when Ross and Rachel had their first date and ended up at the planetarium because Ross was called into work

  7. the other amazing thing about this is that it will show you the REAL constellations!

    "align it according to your location and the time of the year, so it can project a map of the clear night’s sky all around you."

  19. I've been wanting a star projector for such a long time. It wasn't until yesterday when I was browsing Pinterest that I found a store that sells them: http://www.infmetry.com/diy-romantic-star-projector

    It sets such a romantic tone in your home. I would absolutely melt if a guy did this for me :)

    ReplyDelete

  20. Haha burritos, that's funny. I'd love one of these. I've been trying to find a good one that would go in my baby's nursery. But they are all either lame, or too expensive for a nursery.

  23. Omg, that is amazing! In December I'm traveling to Jordan, and I'm going camping with the bedouines. I'll get to see the sky, in the middle of the desert, with zero light polution. I've never been so excited for something in my life!

  26. I bet Toby would love it!!! Think how magical it would be for a little mind. I think I might need one of these :)

    ReplyDelete

  27. Oh my goodness...magical. And love that you mentioned Curb Your Enthusiasm, because clearly I wouldn't be dating/married/interested in the guy if he didn't have an affinity for Larry David. You think I'm joking. ;)

    ReplyDelete

  28. Like your beloved one can present you with the stars!! Amazing! (I'd definitely feel weak on my knees..)

    ReplyDelete

  29. Well, my crush did invite me over to watch the stars (he was an astronomy physics major). When we later married he then put up glow in the dark stars on our ceiling to map out all our favorite constellations. We'd have a look at the stars every night.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  31. I am buying that right now for my husband for Christmas! He's always disappointed with the stars around Chicago. Too much light pollution. He will love this! I'm so glad you posted this.

  39. Wow, so beautiful! That reminds me of the disco light I had as a kid. I would turn off all my lights, turn on my disco light, and just sit and watch the circle colors of light revolve around my room!

    ReplyDelete

  73. i think you have perfectly captured the difference between dating life and married life! although we still do put sigur ros (or thievery corporation, more likely) on the ipod and drink wine. sometimes. but then it's usually followed with curb, or bored to death, or something equally as comfortable. and you know what? i like that just fine. :)

    ReplyDelete

  74. oh my gossshhh i love this! i'm putting it on my wishlist..

    I bought one for my husband for our 6 month anniversary. Its amazing! A little sketchy to put together, the directions don't match the actual pieces included, but it works and looks fantastic. Also, the company seems a little uncertain about the shipping, so be patient even if you order the fast shipping.

  100. Joanna, when you posted this blog post, I bought that star projector the very same day. I gave it to my boyfriend for Christmas 2011 because he loves stars and building things. This item combines both! We ended up putting it together on Valentine's Day earlier this year. It does take some care and consideration to follow the instructions correctly, but the projector really does work. So cool! :)

  101. like your post.attractive post.
