$ 185  

Kintsugi is a Japanese method of repairing broken pottery, to put the pieces back together with adhesive and gold powder. Imitation gold leaf can also be used. Instead of throwing away a precious item, this process honours the broken piece and becomes part of it’s history. It can also be seen as a metaphor for embracing your flaws and imperfections.
 

Materials Fee $15 cash paid at beginning of class includes:

Adhesive (since urushi is toxic, I will bring 2-part epoxy)

Small mixing dish for adhesive
