Ready To Hang Launches Retro-Futuristic “Jelly Mirror” Collection Inspired by 1960s Dessert Molds

Retro Meets Modern in Ready To Hang’s “Jelly Mirror” Collection
Design studio Ready To Hang has unveiled its latest creation—the “Jelly Mirror” collection, a playful yet sculptural take on nostalgia. Drawing inspiration from the whimsical jelly molds of the 1960s, the mirror’s design transforms a familiar retro motif into a vibrant and modern centerpiece for the home.Crafted with a polished resin frame and a clear glass center, each mirror captures the glossy curves and iconic wobble of classic gelatin desserts, while remaining refined in form. It’s an unexpected fusion of kitchen kitsch and high design that reinterprets the past with a joyful, contemporary twist.
A Mirror That Plays With Light and Memory
The Jelly Mirror is available in two rich, translucent colorways: Honey and Cherry. These hues not only echo the tones of vintage sweets, but also interact with sunlight throughout the day. As natural light shifts, the mirror casts dynamic shadows and soft color washes, adding motion and mood to any room it inhabits.Its jelly-like frame serves as more than decoration—it's an ambient element that reanimates the senses and injects fun into daily routines. The mirror’s visual softness and playful nature give it a presence that feels almost alive, reinventing a household object as both a nostalgic nod and a sculptural statement.
“The Jelly Party”: A Celebration of Design and Dessert
To commemorate the launch, Ready To Hang is hosting “The Jelly Party” in collaboration with Coming Soon NYC. Set to take place on July 10, 2025, at Coming Soon’s Chinatown storefront, the event promises a multisensory experience. Attendees can enjoy a jelly-themed tasting menu, curated refreshments, and a limited-edition zine exploring the cultural legacy of jelly as both food and icon.It’s a fitting celebration for a collection that sits at the intersection of nostalgia, humor, and contemporary craft—showcasing how design can spark joy while nodding to the past.

Each Jelly Mirror is priced at $995 USD and will be available exclusively through Ready To Hang’s official website. With its tactile surfaces, translucent glow, and sculptural silhouette, the piece promises to be a conversation starter—and a collector’s item—for design lovers who appreciate both wit and form.This launch reaffirms Ready To Hang’s reputation for turning unexpected inspirations into thoughtfully executed home decor, reminding us that even the humblest of memories—like dessert molds—can be transformed into art.
