This involves mixing gold powder (real or craft) with epoxy resin and injecting it into the cracks to create gold linework on the floor. Crushed glass and mosaic tiles can create beautiful patterns in larger cracks. Pebbles can be set into wide cracks.<\/strong> <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kintsugi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kintsugi is an ancient repair technique used in Asian culture. Directly translated it means &ldquo;gold joinery&rdquo;, and it is traditionally used to repair broken pottery and other ceramic objects. This technique can be traced back to the 15<sup>th<\/sup> century when repairing pottery with metal staples was not as aesthetically pleasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\n    <a data-amazonimages=\"\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Kintsugi Repair Kit, Repair Your Meaningful Pottery with Gold Powder Glue, Starter Ceramic Repair Kit Perfect for Beginners, for A Creative Gift\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B09BJ5M4QV?tag=hvacbuzz-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51LdKDakV5L._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kintsugi Repair Kit, Repair Your Meaningful Pottery with Gold Powder Glue, Starter Ceramic Repair Kit Perfect for Beginners, for A Creative Gift\" title=\"Kintsugi Repair Kit, Repair Your Meaningful Pottery with Gold Powder Glue, Starter Ceramic Repair Kit Perfect for Beginners, for A Creative Gift\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51LdKDakV5L._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kintsugi Repair Kit, Repair Your Meaningful Pottery with Gold Powder Glue, Starter Ceramic Repair Kit Perfect for Beginners, for A Creative Gift\" title=\"Kintsugi Repair Kit, Repair Your Meaningful Pottery with Gold Powder Glue, Starter Ceramic Repair Kit Perfect for Beginners, for A Creative Gift\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Japanese culture adopted the philosophy of wabi-sabi, which embraces imperfection and the idea that just because something is broken, it does not mean it is worthless and meaningless. Transforming broken objects into something beautiful, illuminating their cracks, and telling the objects&rsquo; life stories is the purpose of Kintsugi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this technique, generally, lacquer is mixed with powdered gold and applied to the broken object. However, you can mix epoxy with powdered gold as well. It may be more appropriately used to fill smaller hairline cracks instead of larger cracks on floors in bathrooms and kitchens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Fill Floor Cracks Using Kintsugi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With any floor crack, it&rsquo;s important to clean out the crack, removing any debris and dust that has accumulated.
