We rescue memories from digital screens.
Founded in 2014 by Tina Bush, The Magnet Makers is a boutique studio based in Nagpur. What started as a home hobby to keep baby photos close at hand has transformed into a global community of memory keepers.
We believe that the photos you take are stories worth telling. Our handcrafted photo magnets bring those stories into the physical world, creating tactile spots of joy on refrigerator doors, filing cabinets, and office boards.
What We Stand For
Handcrafted With Integrity
We don't believe in mass industrial stamping. Every single magnet pack is printed, laminated, and precision hand-cut in our Nagpur studio.
Preserving Tactile Value
Our mission is to help people rescue their favorite memories from digital folders, turning them into physical pieces of daily joy.
Quality Over Volume
By combining professional-grade photographic paper, satin sealants, and heavy-duty 30mil rubber, we create items that look beautiful for decades.
How They Are Handcrafted
We maintain absolute quality control by manufacturing everything in-house in our local Nagpur workspace.
1. Color Verification
Your photos are loaded and color-corrected by our software to ensure deep saturation and highlights print perfectly.
2. Fine Art Printing
We use silver-halide photographic print engines to print your photos onto premium heavy-lustre sheets.
3. Magnetic Fusing
The prints are high-pressure mounted onto flexible 30mil magnetic backings utilizing commercial-grade acrylic adhesive.
4. Hand-Cut Precision
Our print makers manually cut every single magnet using precision circular blades to ensure perfect rounded corners.
