That bowl displayed does look wonderful with the golden traces of the broken pieces. That is so beautiful! And I love the idea to repair things instead of buying something new, spending money on it and wasting the old stuff - making the repaired one even more beautiful than before is an amazing bonus! :) The poem is a perfect match to the bowl, so beautiful as well!Beatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712395242968990000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4856662679041828863.post-21837999510985603652014-06-02T19:02:41.954-04:002014-06-02T19:02:41.954-04:00What a great way to look at broken things.
