I was moved to see my precious plate restored!

My husband participated. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I couldn't accompany him, so I couldn't see how he was doing during the experience, but he said the instructor was skilled, kind, and took good care of him. It's like a dream that we can use the precious vintage plate that was broken again. I will definitely repeat this. Thank you very much! 😊夫が参加しました。コロナ禍で付き添いはダメとのことで、体験中の様子は見れませんでしたが、説明が上手で優しくて親切に面倒見てくれたとのこと。割ってしまった大切なヴィンテージのお皿をまた使うことができるなんて夢のようです。またリピートします。ありがとうございました(^^)!!
