我的第一堂多肉課！

好開心終於等到機會玩多肉了！

My first succulent plant class!

So happy I finally had a chance to plant succulent!

雖然其實已經自己動過手，也有本很棒的書。

不過當看到Claire公布這個課程時，還是好想參加～

一來是在新竹，時間允許；教室地點也很吸引人。

但我想最主要的原因應該還是，可以跟大家一起玩吧！

就跟大家喜歡一起來刻章教室玩刻章一樣，

我總覺得有些厲害的根本不用來上課了～但他們還是願意來。

自己當過學生，就真的感受＂上課＂還是不一樣的！

所以我就報名了！還抓了Sara一起來玩！

今天新竹的天氣還不錯唷，出門上課一路都有好心情。

Although I tried to plant myself, I even have a good book.

But when I saw Claire's class information, I still want to join.

Because it is in HsinChu and the time is okay for me, also the classroom seemed good.

However, the most reason I though was because I could have fun with lot of people!

Just like my stamp courses, some people are good enough and don't need to come to class.

But after being a student, I knew "learning in a class" is really different!

 Then I made a registration. I also called Sara to join together.

The weather was good that day, giving me a good mood on my way to classroom.

Clarie今天要帶大家完成三件作品。

要種植的多肉寶寶還有花器，通通幫我們準備好了！

第一個簡單的上手，是使用蛋殼作為花器。

Claire幫我們選了三種多肉：熊童子、虹之玉、月兔耳。

熊童子真得好可愛，超級喜歡它的！

把土填進蛋殼中，再把多肉放進去。

然後在四周塞進水草讓多肉固定，可以扎根。

其實蠻挺容易完成喔！讓人成就感大生！

Today Claire will teach us how to complete three bonsai. 

All the succulent plants and pots were prepared.

We started with a easy bonsai which using eggshells as pots.

Claire prepared three different succulent plants for us:

Bear claws, pussy's ear and one(I don't know it's English name...)

Bear claws is really cute, I love it so much!

We put some earth into that eggshell and then put the succulent plant.

To fix it, we then put some aquatic around it.

Actually it was not difficult to achieve!

來上課還有一個吸引人的地方：有很多可愛的多肉品種耶！

要不然這些其實平常都不好找，尤其像這樣1吋的小多肉。

除非要特地跑段遠路，不然新竹沒有台北的花市這麼豐富。

多虧上課，Claire幫大家準備的都超可愛的～喜歡！

Another reason for joining this class was there were many varieties of succulent plants!

Most of these succulent plants were not easy to find, especially one inch big plants like these.

Thanks to Claire, now I had them all.

然後上手了第一個蛋殼的作品，接著陸續完成兩個作品。

這兩個都是要自己來組合與搭配多肉了！

一個是小綠球花器，一個是方型的白色花器。

Claire把剩餘的多肉們一次都發下來給我們。

讓我們可以自己搭配、自己組合喜歡的樣子。

一樣的花器，因組合不同大家完成的作品都會不一樣！

組合多肉還有為多肉挑選花器，

我想這就是玩多肉好玩的地方之一。

它們的顏色、形狀都有不同的特色。

弄在一起很容易就可以擁有一個小森林。

 After we could comlete the first easy one, then we started to make the second and the third one.

For these two, we need to learn how to assemble those succulent plants.

one was a green ball pot and another was white square pot.

Claire gave us all the succulent plants we'll need and let us build up our own bonsai.

So that even we had same pots and same plants, but all the bonsai won't be the same.

To assemble succulent plants and to choose the pot are the one of fun points for planting.

They all have different colors and shapes, you could easily build up a small forest!

小綠球中則選擇了三款相似的多肉，

都是像玫瑰般排列的葉子。

有紅色，有綠色，也有帶點白的。放在一起。

剩餘的多肉就通通擺進白色花器裡。

白色較大的花器很好搭配，怎樣都好看。

我選擇將麻布大片的露出，讓它看起來就像是小花束。

麻布的顏色與多肉真是絕配，可不是嗎～

 I chose three succulent plants to put into the green ball pot.

They all have similar shapes which lookes like roses.

I put one in red, one in green and one in white together.

And the others all put into the white square pot.

I let the sackcloth came out and it will looks like a little bunch of flowers.

The sackcloth and the succulent plants really match to each other, doesn't it?

 然後組完了三個多肉盆栽作品後，就是下午茶時間！ 

吃飽後馬上Claire拿出一大盒的紙膠帶、麻繩等等。

還有很多小工具、道具，要來裝飾自己的盆栽！

插上圖案的花牌，整個盆栽變得好可愛！

 挪～這就是我這一天的三件作品！

自己覺得很開心呢～

上課的進度果然比自己玩得快很多。

而且他們真的。都。可。愛。

接下來，最困難的作業來了～要好好照顧它們！

這個就真的要自己來了！

希望一個月後、三個月後他們都可以好好的。

變肥變肥阿你們～不要變瘦喔！！

After finished the three bonsai and we then have a afternoon tea.

Claire prepare a lot of beautiful masking tapes and also some tools for us to decorate our bonsai.

After decoration, the bonsai became very cute!

These are my works that day. I felt so happy!

Now the most difficult part is to take care of them.

I hope they are all well after one month, three monthes...

Please~

很喜歡這張與Claire還有Sara家兩隻小鬼的合照。

雖然晃到了，可是你看看Sara家草莓妹的臉，有夠可愛啦！

整個以草莓妹的笑容為中心旋轉捏！

這次上課的地點在新竹，奶油飛。

下篇再來跟大家介紹這個新的下午茶好地方唷～
