Are you looking for unique things to do at home? Or want a new creative hobby that's super relaxing? Why not try out this online Kintsugi class with a craft box delivered to your door!
The Japanese art of Kintsugi, a method that has been used for over 550 years to repair broken ceramics using lacquer with Gold powder.
“Kin” means GOLD
“tsugi” means JOINT TOGETHER
In this workshop, the modern materials are used such like Epoxy glue, so anyone can easily do it !
This beginners Kintsugi class uses an original technique designed by Kintsugi Australia to make it easy for anyone to use the Modern Kintsugi technique, especially for those who live in Australia.
The Zoom workshop includes a Kintsugi kit so once you’ve done this, you will be able to repair your broken items !
If you have many broken items you’d like to repair after completed this class, you can continue your Kintsugi project at home easily. We will also explain you where you can get the materials. You can buy almost all materials in local stores in Australia.
The principle behind Kintsugi is that by embracing your flaws and imperfections, you can create something even stronger and more beautiful.
This meditative and meaningful indoor activity can be practised during this live streaming class from the comfort of your own home.
By the end of the class, you'll have an entirely repaired ceramic and the skills to repair anything else broken in your home!
This workshop is a small setting of up to 5 people. It also can be set up privately from one person. It is recommended for special occasions such as birthdays. If you’d like to make it private, please select a private event option.
