Left Shelter's Left Well: A Painting Inspired by Autumn

The forest and the creek take turns, Light and shadow intertwine with color, The pumpkin-colored hat, under the reflection of green, looks like Little Red Riding Hood, Uncle Qiang said that here you can even shoot Qinghai-like scenery, Autumn must have been shattered here, leaving behind a sea of green, silky blue, red and vibrant red, plump yellow and pure white, dyeing this place into a painting, Old Yellow Cow slowly and leisurely waded across the stream, and the chirping of birds and the calls of birds echoed in the forest. Time seemed to flow away from my ears. I never thought that such a quiet and primitive scenery would only be an hour and a half away from Wenzhou.

Before introducing the homestay today, I want to introduce two interesting traditional crafts of Ruian,

Every time I see this set of photos, I sigh—the combination of light and shadow and ancient architecture is beautiful,

That day we were originally shooting in the Wood Block Printing Museum, and accidentally stumbled upon a hidden courtyard that was not open to the public—a spacious courtyard, a slightly dim wooden structure house—the imprint of skills was engraved on the master's hands, while the shadow of inheritance was projected onto the young printer…

One knife after another, it seemed to have cut through time.

——With a history of 800 years, originating from the Northern Song Dynasty, the Wood Block Printing Technique is currently the only one that is still in use and is still being used, and the people of Ruian are still using it to create and modify scripts, Of course, there is also an open experience of Wood Block Printing in the second floor of the museum.

You can choose your own characters (one after another tightly arranged super small font on opposite sides, selecting the desired character from it is not an easy thing), arrange and print, imprint your blessings on red paper.

My 'results' from my first attempt were simply disastrous, about 100 times worse than I imagined,

After experiencing Wood Block Printing, Ruian's traditional crafts are not just this one! One of China's traditional indigo dyeing techniques, 'Blue Indigo', is also here.

Plant indigo to get blue, and the first time I knew that this dye was made from Malan flower leaves plus a certain proportion of ingredients, Traditional Blue Indigo uses two symmetrical wooden boards to clamp the fabric to dye, and a set of finely carved templates are worth a lot, Blue Indigo dyeing is a relatively complicated and time-consuming process, if you want to experience it easily, you can try batik, Tie the yarn in different ways to bind the fabric, or add stones, or just simply tie knots—the most amazing thing about batik is its myriad of changes—even if the way of tying is the same, the resulting effect will be completely different, There are no two exactly the same flowers in the world, After soaking the batik in a dye tank and repeatedly oxidizing, you can slowly get unique patterns, Make a scarf to take home, as a souvenir of autumn, After staying in the homestay for a long time, sometimes you may feel a little aesthetic fatigue, Similar floor-to-ceiling windows and swimming pools, the same bathtub chairs, occasional fleeting dizziness can't tell where you are, And the most touching detail of Left Shelter's Left Well is that it has become a carrier of Ruian culture—not only are all the wooden furniture made from local designer brands 'Wood Ink', but you can directly feel the charm of Wood Block Printing in the homestay's lobby, The vast expanse of blank space allows the distant forest and the grassland outside the window to serve as background; let the sunlight shining from the floor-to-ceiling windows and the attic be the lines—nature is the best decoration, And at Left Shelter's Left Well, we are invited by nature,

I have decorated my room with blue indigo-dyed pillows,

At the Left Well's Left Shelter's lobby, you can feel the charm of Wood Block Printing,

Don't talk about it, the parent-child room is super cute!

They actually made a slide in the room!

If the picture has sound, it's what I keep saying: 'I love it, I love it, I love it so much!'

Double-story duplex design, not only has a slide, but also a tent for stargazing... simply unwilling to stay in the room,

And I most miss the moments when the sun is shining on my face, I can't help but smile when I think about it, Little Black Teacher, please make way,

This is also what I like most about Left Shelter's Left Well—whether it's architecture or rooms, they are simple and elegant, giving people a soft and warm feeling, The vast expanse of blank space allows the distant forest and the grassland outside the window to serve as background; let the sunlight shining from the floor-to-ceiling windows and the attic be the lines—nature is the best decoration, And at Left Shelter's Left Well, we are invited by nature,

I love the feeling of the sun shining on my face, I can't help but smile when I think about it, I want you, you are just right,
