The full moon tonight is a SuperMoon. I have visions of Luna wearing a sparkling silver cape and brandishing a starlit bow and arrow, but in actually it is a scientific phase and not of the Marvel universe.
The Moon is at its perigee, when it is closest to the Earth during its monthly orbit. It appears about 14% bigger, and because it is also at its fullest, it appears *really* big. Super, actually.
I pay homage to Lady Luna with these pieces inspired by the FAE team Monthly Dare. February is known as the Snow Moon, one name amongst many, but I chose to reflect on this name because the effect of the full moon at its perigee shining over all the snow that has fallen this winter must be an utterly dazzling sight.
May I present Snowy Moonlight Earrings, and Moonlight Faery Ballroom Necklace.

Love these! Are those moon(face) beads in the earrings moonstones??
lovely sparkling creations for a magickal Fairy's Ball...now where are my dancing shoes?
Moonbeams made solid, how beautiful! Thank you for explaining the Super Moon. I thought it seemed awfully big and bright this month but I didn't know the reason.
Lovely Juliebelle....you keep outdoing yourself...these two designs are beautiful, just like you :)

The moon faces are actually iridescent pressed glass beads, wouldn't carved moonstone be gorgeous, though?
I savor coming here in my quiet times, and always leave feeling refreshed and enlightened. Lovely pieces, captured moonlight....
Hello dear! Gorgeous, almost watery creations! love them. Blessings.
I know I'm a little late on this posting but the moon was memorable and your homages are gorgeous!
