    Un moment sympa pour mes filles ! Après, le client fait ce qui est simple: application de la peinture, mais c'est l'animateur qui réalise la partie technique...c'est dommage qu'on n'ait pas appris à faire les motifs. Ça reste une activité coûteuse pour 1h.

    I have no talent for crafts, but with the instructor's help I decorated a mask I couldn't take my eyes off of and could not stop making photos wearing it. I am absolutely delighted, it was so much fun, and yet educational and relaxing in a charming, inspiring atmosphere. Would love to visit again.

    Cela a duré que 1h30 mais c'étais enrichissant sur comment sont fabriquer les masques, leurs histoires, le choix du masque à faire et le choix des couleurs. On est bien orienté sur la façon de faire et on final on à un superbe rendu. Pour ma part il manquais un peu de déco original! mais génial.
