Ema will be holding a KINTSUGI WORKSHOP on Fri/Sat/Sun & Mon 28th/29th/30th & 31st March here in Wellington again at The Bond Store, Hutt Art Society, Toi Poneke and California Gardens and she has limited spots available so make sure to book in early.
Have you ever wanted to try Kintsugi.... It's an ancient Japanese art form where you fix broken pottery with gold - making its imperfections its beauty. - A truly wonderful philosophy to live by. If you are interested please copy this link and paste it into the search engine: emafrost.com...
I'm sure there's a few of you out there that have been saving a broken piece not knowing quite what to do with it, and if not Ema has plenty of back ups. So just bring yourselves and have some fun. Bring a friend and make some Kintsugi magic together.
