The idea of refurbishing is an old notion and the philosophy that AySes gleams off of is in the history of ppls not entirely from North America. Here you see a very strong connection to what she believes in;
When the Japanese mend broken objects, they aggrandize the damage by filling the cracks with gold. They believe that when something's suffered damage and has a history, it becomes more beautiful.

d 15th century, when one emperor decided the process of fixing valuable broken pots with those metal staples needed a more glamorous make over, so he instructed his craftsmen to come up with a more beautiful alternative. They invented kintsugi, where pots are fixed with gold dusted glue. The Japanese have come to cherish the imperfection of a broken pot fixed this way, seeing it as a creative addition to the pot’s life story. Admittedly they do it beautifully, but it’s like a bit of darning on a sock, sometimes things look more interesting with some mending.
