The one on The Modern Kintsugi workshop

 

So the other day, I signed up for this mother and daughter event organised by Sephora and Cle de Peau in celebration of Mother's Day. I usually will "park" dad at a shopping mall for the duration of the workshop but this time, it was held at an industrial building and not a mall. But the organizers were kind enough to let him join in the workshop as well. :)

Basically, we get broken pieces of pottery which we get to put back together with gold (epoxy mixed with fine metallic powder). The art symbolises putting back the broken pieces in our lives - instead of hiding the cracks, we show off their beauty by covering them with gold. 

The whole experience was quite therapeutic...and we got some lovely door gifts too - a box of macarons, an eye cream sample and a travel-sized lip palette...not too bad for a "free" event. 

Happy weekend friends! :)
