The piece is inspired by young children's fascination with the moon, and given its depiction of [varying lunar configurations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumoon), it may also be used to show kids different solar shapes. To create this wall hanging, all one needs are stencils, silver gilded paint, brushes, wood and a long piece of wood. The circular shapes are then drawn and painted on, giving way to the [full and half-moon shapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonswatch-mission-to-earthphase). Once completed and dried, the thick piece of lumber can be hung on [bedroom walls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doodleface).
