Embrace Your Inner Teenager With Outer Space–Inspired Decor

You know those tiny glow-in-the-dark stars you painstakingly stuck onto your ceiling as a teenager? Well, maybe you were on to something. Celestial decor is finding its way into more adult settings these days and bringing a (welcome) dash of whimsy and otherworldliness with it. Think: star-studded pieces, from Moravian star lighting fixtures to Milky Way–inspired tiling; planetary surfaces on tables of all sizes; and even spaceship-inspired shapes, like those now-ubiquitous Sputnik chandeliers. We're down with all of this home decor trend (and yes, even if you take that to mean it's time to find and plug back in your beloved lava lamp).

When shopping for celestial-inspired decor, you can go in any one of a million directions, from the all stars everywhere route to more of a '70s space-junkie vibe (see: this free downloadable poster from NASA). The sky's the limit!
