"Kintsugi is not just about simple repairs, but is an expression of kindness and love. You can redo the repairs as many times as needed or desired, so there is no such thing as failure with kintsugi... It is an apt metaphor for making dreams come true, and kintsugi teaches us the power of resilience." — Michihiro Hori, author of *A Beginner's Guide to Kintsugi*

Perhaps you've heard about the mindful Japanese philosophy at the heart of *Kintsugi* — that imperfections are beautiful, and visible repairs are part of an object's "life story." Perhaps you've even considered this at a personal level, and it has helped you appreciate and celebrate your life more deeply, imperfections and all.

Or maybe you just watched the series finale of the popular TV show *Killing Eve* and heard the main character's moving wedding speech about kintsugi: "It's a way of bonding to create something new, something completely your own."

In *A Beginner's Guide to Kintsugi*, author Michihiro Hori provides practical steps to take part in this Japanese art form, with simple, safe, and inexpensive methods that you can do at home using tools and materials that are readily available online. Hori guides you through the entire process — from assembling and mixing the materials to reconstructing replacements for hopelessly shattered shards.

And in the process of repairing these beloved, broken objects, you just might find a metaphor for the beautiful, resilient life that is completely your own.
