Aranmula mirrors are handmade metal-alloy mirrors, made in Aranmula, a village in the state of Kerala, India. Unlike the normal ‘silvered’ glass mirrors, being a metal-alloy mirror, it is a front surface reflection mirror, which eliminates secondary reflections and aberrations typical of back surface mirrors.The myth about the origin and secret of its composition makes it a truly fascinating craft. As traditional as the mirror-making technology is, the artisans’ belief that the composition of the metal mirror is divine and some undisclosed metals alloyed with silver, bronze, copper and tin are responsible for the distortion-free images.

In my kitchen, fridge magnets are the unsung heroes of order. One magnet is for recipes, another is for reminders of appointments, and others are just for decoration. It's a fun and unique method to stay organized, and the bonus is that it makes my refrigerator seem much more appetizing.
