After breaking a few too many mugs and handmade pottery pieces, I decided to try my hand at a version of kintsugi: ceramics repair using gold (or gold-colored pigment) to embrace the broken edges and add a new kind of beauty. Let's craft!

*** Finished kintsugi pieces should NOT be used in dishwasher or microwave! Hand wash only! Only safe for food/drink if ALL of your materials are rated as food grade/food safe. This process is best for decorative or non-food storage items. ***
