予約ではSサイズでしたが、見本を見たりして作りやすいのはMサイズとのことでMサイズにしました。Mサイズは2400円でSより500円高くなりますがMサイズがちょうどよかったです。 こちらは動画の説明ではなく店員さんが直接説明してくれます。わりとざっくりなので作るのが苦手な人はYouTubeとかの動画を見てから作りにいくとイメージしやすいと思います。店員さんは私の行った時間は一人で対応していたので、必要なときは声かけした方がよいと思います。遅い時間になってしまったので受け取りは後日になりましたがうまく焼けててよかったです。家に帰ってから色を塗りたくなったら何で塗ればいいか尋ねたところポスターカラーで塗ってくださいとこのでした。とりあえず家ではそのまま飾ってますが塗らないのもかわいいです。飛行機で壊れることもなく無事でした。 受付で木のカメとジンベイザメのキーホルダーを眺めていたら、くださるとのこと。カメの方がデザインが凝ってましたが、美ら海水族館にも今回お邪魔してたのでジンベイザメにしました。こちらは体験した方にプレゼントをいろいろ用意してるようでした。そのときによって種類は違うようでしたが、ジンベイザメかわいかったです。シーサーと一緒に飾ってます。 こちらのわがままにも嫌な顔をせずに対応してくださり、みなさんよい人たちでした。また機会があれば遊びに行きたいと思います。
