A Letter to All Mothers!

mothers-day-nz-13

I love that we set aside a whole day to honour our mothers who raised us with everything in their power. Whether it’s the mom who devoted a good 20 years of her life only raising us or the mother who juggled between her work and raising us, we definitely need to salute them for all that they have done. I have an amazing mother who still continues to support me even in my 30’s. She is strong, independent, positive, hardworking, supportive, and someone who has always moved with the times and not made me feel for a single moment that “my mom is old-fashioned”. We are two sisters, and she has raised us beautifully that I can’t thank her enough for everything she has done and continues to do. I don’t think you completely realise the value of your mom till you become one yourself and now that I am so close to becoming one myself, this mother’s day means a lot more than all the ones in the past.

So go out there today and cherish all the moments you have spent with your mother. Your mother gave up her life just to put a smile on your face and continues to do so. If you’re a new mother or going to be one, just remember you’re entering the most rewarding part of your life. And there will be days when you will be overwhelmed and exhausted but just remember “this too shall pass.” Every phase of your child must be appreciated because nothing lasts forever and in no time your children will grow up and not need you as much as they did so before. So, go out there and be the best mom you can be and don’t forget to do these top five things:

1) Cook for your kids – There is nothing more satisfying than eating a meal cooked by your mother, and I can say that for a fact because even though I am 30 something woman, I still crave to eat my mom’s food. So, don’t deprive them of this!

2) Play with them – No matter how tired you’re everyday, make some time to play with them and read to them. These are your special bonding times, and they won’t come back

3) Hug them tight – Nothing is more warming than receiving a hug from your mom. So if your kid ever runs up to you, leave everything you’re doing and give them a tight hug

4) Appreciate them – Every kid is special so please don’t compare your kids to others. Take the time to appreciate all the little things they do to make you feel special

5) Tell them you love them – There isn’t a better feeling than hearing the words “I love you” from your mother. So, always tell your kids how much you love them!

I hope all you mothers feel loved and appreciated this Mother’s day and no matter which phase of motherhood you’re in, remember you’re doing your best and that you’re loved.

The January Birthstone – Garnet

“By her who is this month was born

No gem save garnets shall be worn

They will ensure her constancy

True friendship and fidelity.”

— Gregorian Birthstone poem

Traditionally, birthstone is a gemstone associated with each month of the year. The modern concept of having a special stone related to the month you were born is such a fun idea. No matter where the origins lead to, there’s something charming about the very thought that we each have a precious stone associated with the month we were born, and exploring the folklore and legends around each gem only add to the fun.

The birthstone for January is a garnet. Garnet is most commonly dark red but can be found in a variety of colours that includes red, yellow, orange, brown, green, pink, black, and some are even colourless. Garnet also shows a vitreous or glassy lustre.

According to legends, wearing a Garnet gemstone during the month of January heightens its healing powers. Garnets light up the night and protect their owners from nightmares and accidents when far from home. Garnet brings the wearer with good luck, peace, prosperity, protection and good health. And some say it even has the power to give the wearer eternal happiness and wealth. From the fiery orange to the rich green and the widely recognized red, Garnet is considered a great gift to symbolize friendship and trust. With its stunning variety of colours and its mystical powers Garnet is chosen for the 2nd and 6th wedding anniversary.

Most popularly associated with peace, prosperity and good health to the home. The garnet called the “Gem of faith” also symbolizes deep and lasting friendship. With that legend in mind, gift a garnet to someone whose friendship you genuinely value or take it if you’re a January born legend.

MirrorWhite offers some amazing pieces of garnet embedded silver jewellery to deck up your body with luck and goodness.

Walk like an Egyptian and Dress like one too!

The last one year has been a rollercoaster ride for us at MirrorWhite! Running a new business and growing organically means wearing multiple hats at the same time. It’s an exciting period but also stressful at the same time. You need to meet you sales, manage your expenses, do your marketing, develop new product lines, and so on and so forth. It’s always a never ending list of tasks! In the bargain, I have learnt a lot and Thanks to the support of friends and family, we have come a long way since we started in June 2014.

Today, it’s a good feeling to see one of our first luxury collection getting noticed in social media and getting the kind of appreciation we never expected. Yes, we are talking about our Egyptian Collection. We spent days and months developing this line of jewellery, from the concept, to the designs, to the colors, to sourcing the stones, to manufacturing, and finally to see the finished piece in your hand is the best feeling in the world.

It started with a concept as simple as taking inspiration from Egypt and we built on that to bring to you something beautiful, unique – something that if worn will make a style statement. We wanted to fuse together western and Indian, so it can be matched beautifully with both types of clothing. Why should jewellery always be restrictive? Shouldn’t we be able to style it with whatever kind of clothing we wear?

Another exciting thing that came about with this new launch was our photoshoot by Supriya Suryanarayanan in Bangalore. It was so much fun to do our first ever photo shoot and she managed to capture the jewellery so beautifully that all of effort and time put in just made sense in the end! Oh and we also ran a fun contest on what you like about Egypt and gave away a gift voucher from MirrorWhite worth Rs. 5000 on Social Media! We also had a winner, Nazia!

Behind the scenes at the MirrorWhite Photoshoot

Today, in this overcrowded market place, consumers have a 100 choices to look for but we at MirrorWhite hope that you enjoy what we are bringing to you. We are learning along the way but our motto remains the same, we want to bring to you, unique – one of a kind – handmade silver jewellery that is wearable, fun, stylish yet not over the top. We want you to feel special when you wear it! We want you to remember us and the effort that has been put into making each piece of jewellery by our artisans across India. We are excited to be a part of this journey and will be bringing to you more such collections in the future!

So tell us what you think? Do you like our new Egyptian collection? Notice the prisms, the falcons, the lovely blue colours, the turquoise and lapis, and most of all the hard work put into each piece by the craftsman….
