Sandy Leaf Farm Kintsugi Repair Kit - Repair Your own Ceramics with Gold Powder - Includes Two Beautiful Practice Bowls

This is a beautiful kit with everything you need to try this, even if you’re a beginner like me. The two practice bowls are beautiful even before you break them! Well worth the cost and a great gift, whether for you or for someone else.

Broke my ramen bowl as I was hangry.. made it worse!Didn't want to throw away the bowl so got this to fix it. Was easy to use. Instructions were good, had to reread them a few times to make sure I was doing it correctly.Was a lovely little project, had to work fast but was nice that it included small bowls to practice. They look cute as jewelry bowls!Only thing is, I wouldn't eat out of the bowl incase the glue and gold powder came through to the food. Which is a shame. Doesn't say it on the package that you shouldn't eat from a bowl with it in.

I really liked the small bowls for practice, the packaging, the gold colouring and the speed of delivery.I was a bit disappointed that the kit contained superglue, I don't know quite what I expected! The small applicators for the glue were a bit fiddly and as the glue dried very quickly once mixed, it was a race to use as much as possible before that happened. If I had had a bigger project to mend I would not have had enough glue.I think the instructions should be more specific and say 'mix glue in small quantities to apply little and often as the glue dries very quickly once mixed'. Overall I liked the result but as this was my first attempt at Kintsugi it does look very amateur.

Bought this kit a few months ago and just getting round to doing it now as I'm off work with covid. This is a great kit and the products provided are value for money, I wasn't expecting to break the lovely bowls myself! But it just added to the fun. It's easy to mix the glue and powder but it sets really quickly so I had to mix more for all the breaks and then it dried too quickly on the bowl before I could get it in place so it's not perfect but... That's the point right?! This would make a great gift for someone who needs to learn the value of imperfection! (I can think of a few...)I'm excited to go break more stuff now, Ming vase says whaaat...

First off, its a great idea, I will 100% be doing this with other objectsThe bad part is the methods it tries to use for this:Breaking -Before I was to break it, I was thinking that I've seen bowls and plates break, they shatter everywhere so was intrigued on how the method outlined would stop that. Spoiler it didn't. The first bowl shattered so all the pieces were equal and the bottom disintegrated, glue wasn't helping that and the end product looked boring. Second bowl I hit on the side instead of the bottom and got two massive pieces and the rest disintegrated again. I'm not sure why the kit doesn't provide a broken item but in equal parts from the get go. A larger item rather than 2 bowls would be more enjoyableGluing:I use epoxy a lot for miniature building however, it's normally not visible at the end so was intrigued on how it would explain on how to get clear neat visible lines. It don't, the first time around, it looked like id just glued it back together. There isn't any instruction to how much glue, how much powder just "a line". I added more glue to the next fix and then glue poured out leaving a fixed bowl crack with some seeped out gold glue. I'm bewildered why it doesn't use epoxy putty instead and a gold metallic paint instead as that is easier to control for beginners, it would leave clear lines and means you don't have glue everywhere.Good intro to realise what it is and how it works but for beginners is just frustrating

The glue doesn't work. Followed instructions exactly and the bowl just fell apart after we had held it together for the 60secs required.

Lovely fun! We bought a ceramic bowl for our daughter while on holiday and it arrived home broken in 4 places so we looked for an alternative to simply gluing it back together. We bought the Kintsugi kit and she and her father had a lovely time learning this art together. The bowl will be treasured and is beautiful.

I broke my favour coffee cup and do used this to mend it-it looks amazing!!
