What it is

Bring the wonders of deep space into your home with a throw that transforms high-resolution infrared data into something you can actually touch — unlike the actual nebula, which is 160,000 light-years away and significantly less cozy. Featuring the iconic "30 Doradus" imagery captured by the James Webb Space Telescope, this woven piece brings a touch of cosmic history to your living room while visually establishing your strict boundary lines for comfort. Whether draped over a sofa or mounted as a massive wall tapestry, it is the perfect way to pretend you are studying astronomy while actually just resting your eyes.

Care instructions
To keep your nebula looking interstellar, machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach — we want to see the stars, not a white dwarf.
Shipping & returns

Made to order in 3 to 5 business days, then 5 to 8 in transit. Free within the USA.

Order more than one thing and it may arrive in separate parcels from different print shops, which is normal and not us losing track of your order.

The whole story

Somewhere in the Tarantula Nebula, about 160,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud, is exactly this cloud of gas and starlight. Now it's on your couch.

Inspired by the real NASA James Webb Space Telescope image, this blanket turns an actual piece of space photography into something you can wrap yourself in on a Tuesday night.

Woven, not printed, from 100% cotton, so the image lives in the fabric itself. Same fringed edges and everyday durability as the rest of our throws.

Choose Your Cosmic Scale:

  • 52"x37" — good for a chair, a nap, or draping over one shoulder like you're about to deliver a prophecy.
  • 60"x50" — the couch-sized default, no notes.
  • 80"x60" — big enough to actually cover two people, which has historically caused arguments about who gets more blanket.

Care Instructions: Machine wash cold, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Skip the bleach, the nebula doesn't need help looking dramatic.

Good for: space nerds, anyone who peaked at the JWST images in 2022 and never got over it, gifts for people who say "the universe is so small" unironically.

Questions people actually ask

How long does it take?

Made to order in 3 to 5 business days, then 5 to 8 in transit. So 8 to 13 business days all in. We would rather tell you the real number than a hopeful one.

Is it printed or woven?

Woven. The design is made of actual coloured yarn, not ink sitting on top of fabric. It will not crack, peel or fade in the wash.

Can I put a name on it?

On products with a name field, yes. It is woven in, not stuck on. Personalized items cannot be returned unless we got it wrong, in which case we fix it free.

Do you ship outside the USA?

Not yet. Everything ships within the United States only, and shipping is free.

Will the colours match my screen?

Close, but not exact. Woven blankets use a limited palette of real yarns, so pure white reads as a soft bone and gradients become blocks of colour. The photos show the actual woven product, not the digital file.
