mirror mirror on the wall...

....lets see which is the prettiest of them all!


lotus leaf mirrors

These designs are made of mirror acrylic. Light... in weight and on pockets. The good part is you don't need to drill holes for these. One can also stick them in places where drilling isn't an option.... bathroom tiles, bathroom doors, cupboards, etc, besides the usual places.

mughal motif (1) mirrors

The mughal motif ones, come in a set of six. So there is a choice of making your own patterns on the wall. The blue background for the designs is my cupboard.

mughal motif (2) mirrors

The above design is one of my favourite. Not only the formations happen great...the negative also makes a pattern!

The leaves below come in a set of 5 or 7.

Again, my partner for the pieces in this post is Vrushali. Also, we thought of something new..... we call them the 'couple coasters'. As the name says, they are coasters for two people to enjoy their drinks together! There are the usual colors we have used and there are these exciting transparent florescents.... all are below.

The florescent couple coasters were difficult to click. One, their shadow blurs the edges and two, they look good in dark (in the picture i.e). These were made for the last exhibition. And now are in stores. Cant find a proper packaging for these though! Any ideas.....?

A lot more, in mirrors, besides the above has happened since then. Will post more pictures soon. Waise I got back sooper quick this time, haan?!

Happy Pongal! Happy Lohri! Happy Uttraan!

Coyote Accessories in Acrylic

heart coaster and a stirrer

Its a beautiful day outside and I am sitting home working...

But I am excited. 'Coyote Accessories' in acrylic have recently seen their first preview. In a show in Mumbai and on Facebook. The reactions were amused ones to waaws.

I have been working with silver for very long now. Needed to have some more fun. I thought the next material, I play with, needs to have colors... loads of them!

I started sketching and figuring out vendors. Designed various dinning as well as home products like coasters, couple coasters, stirrers, key rings, napkin rings, place mats, hangers, boxes for different uses, screens. Lots of it is still in production. Some with me. Adding a few pictures here for you to see.
