Once In A Blue Moon
There’s a certain kind of moment worth waiting for - the kind that doesn’t happen often, but when it does, you remember it. A soft Sunday. A dress that feels like it was made for you. A fabric so beautifully imperfect you can’t stop touching it.
That’s where this began.
How It Started
It started with a length of hand block printed cotton - the kind you find in Jaipur, where the craft has lived for centuries and every print still begins the same way it always has: a hand, a wooden block, a colour, and no rush at all.
I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Not just the print itself, but everything behind it - the patience it takes, the tiny human imperfections that make every piece slightly different, the idea that something could be made slowly in a world that mostly isn’t.
So I started small. A handful of pieces, printed by hand, made to be worn - not saved for someday, but reached for often. That’s still the whole idea.
Why “Once In A Blue Moon”
A blue moon is rare - it happens, but not often, and when it does, people notice. That’s what I wanted this to feel like. Not another wardrobe full of things you forget you own, but pieces that feel a little rare. A little considered. Made once, in small batches, and then gone.
Nothing here is designed to be everywhere at once. If a print sells out, it doesn’t come back the same way twice.
The Craft Behind Every Piece
Every piece is hand block printed by artisans in Jaipur, India - a technique passed down through generations, done entirely by hand. A design is carved into a wooden block, dye is mixed and applied, and the block is pressed onto cotton one motif at a time, one colour at a time.
It’s slow. It’s imperfect in the most human way. And it means no two pieces will ever print exactly alike - which isn’t a flaw, it’s the point.
What This Is For
This is for the days you want to feel like yourself without trying too hard. For the pieces you actually reach for, not the ones you save for an occasion that never comes. For anyone who’d rather own three things they love than thirty they don’t.
Small batch. Handmade. Made for sweet, effortless moments and for you to be part of, once in a while, in a way that feels a little rare.
With love,
Once In A Blue Moon 🌙
