Kintsugi Inspired Earrings
By Poppy Mosbacher. Posted
If you have a small piece of wood leftover from a project, you could turn it into a pair of striking earrings with a little gold paint.
illustrisWorkshop has created this design based on the Japanese art form Kintsugi. They etched the grooves using a laser cutter and then filled it with a mix of epoxy glue and metallic paint. Alternatively you could make use of any natural imperfections in scrap wood.
