Kintsugi & DIY

Kintsugi & DIY – creative sets to make something special yourself

Make, repair, print or grow something yourself. In the Kintsugi & DIY by SuperMatique collection, you'll find creative DIY sets where the process is at least as interesting as the final result. From Kintsugi and cyanotype to block printing, grow kits, and 3D wall decoration: projects to get started with yourself and create something that deserves a place in your home.

The collection has been selected for lovers of design, craftsmanship, and creativity. Not standard craft kits, but creative DIY kits where technique, material, and design come together.

Kintsugi – the art of repair

With Kintsugi, broken ceramics get a new life. This traditional Japanese repair technique doesn't try to hide breaks, but rather makes them visible. The repaired lines become part of the object and tell something about its history.

At SuperMatique, you'll find Kintsugi repair kits from Humade with which you can restore ceramics and porcelain yourself. Use a Kintsugi kit for a broken plate, bowl, cup, vase, or another cherished object.

Every break is different, and therefore every final result is unique. Kintsugi also fits well with the idea of not immediately replacing items, but repairing and re-appreciating them.

Cyanotype – make prints with sunlight

Cyanotype, also known as blueprint, is a historical photographic printing technique that creates characteristic deep blue images. With a cyanotype DIY set, you can experiment with light, shapes, and compositions yourself.

Leaves, flowers, and other botanical materials are particularly suitable for cyanotype. Place your composition on the light-sensitive material, let sunlight do its work, and then develop your own blue print.

Every print is different and can afterwards be framed or become part of a personal collage wall.

Block printing – design and print your own patterns

With block printing, you can create your own patterns and illustrations by printing a design on paper or textile. It's a simple printing technique with endless possibilities: repeat one motif to create a graphic pattern or combine different shapes and colors.

Our block printing sets make it possible to experiment with this technique at home and create your own prints and designs. A creative project where small differences between the prints are part of the result.

Grow kits – let your interior grow

Not every DIY project is immediately finished. With our grow kits, you literally see the result grow.

For example, let an avocado pit root in a specially designed germination vase or start growing plants yourself. The glass growing objects make roots and the growing process visible, making them an interesting object in the interior even without a fully grown plant.

A plant grow kit is also an original gift for plant lovers, curious beginners, and anyone who likes to bring some greenery into their home.

Make your own 3D wall decoration

With our sets for 3D wall decoration, you can make decorative objects for the wall yourself. Relief, shape, and material create a different effect than a traditional poster or print.

Hang one self-made wall object separately or combine different shapes with art, mirrors, and other wall decoration. This way, the making becomes part of an interior that can continue to grow.

Creative DIY sets as an original gift

A DIY kit is a gift that you don't just look at, but also do something with. Kintsugi sets, cyanotype kits, block printing sets, and grow kits are therefore original gifts for people who like to make things themselves, experiment, or discover new techniques.

The end result doesn't have to be perfect. It's precisely the handmade character, the differences, and small irregularities that make each project personal.
