If you like succulents as much as I do then you 
will love this project! Perfect for your house, so pretty as a gift. Plus, minimum cost 
and minimum time make it a win win!
//
Se vi piacciono le succulente tanto quanto a me
allora adorerete questo progetto! Perfetto per la vostra casa, carinissimo come regalo. 
In più, costo e tempo minimi lo rendono vincente!

***

You need // Vi occorre:

- Mini succulents / cacti (I bought 2 for less than 2 € and picked the other 2 in my 
family garden). // Mini succulente / cactus (io ne ho comprate 2 a meno di 2 € e raccolto 
le altre 2 nel giardino dei miei).
- A little box. // Una scatolina.
- A piece of plastic. I cut a squared piece from a plastic folder (those you use for documents), 
bigger than the box bottom so that it can cover the sides as well. // Un pezzo di plastica 
(io l’ho ritagliato da una cartelletta da ufficio), un po' più grande del fondo della scatola.
- Soil // terriccio.


How to // Come procedere:

First, place the plastic piece on the bottom of the box to protect it against water. Then place 
your succulents so that they are comfortable and add the soil. Water them and 
you’re done! Remember to water your plants if the soil is dry and a bit more 
during Spring and Summer, but never too much. If you prefer, you can spray water 
instead of pouring it. The idea of the box is pretty for a gift, but of course, once open,
it must stay open: they need to breath! Well, enjoy your cuties :)
//
Innanzitutto, mettete la plastica sul fondo, così da ripararlo dall'acqua. Poi posizionate
le piante in modo che siano comode e aggiungete il terriccio. Date loro dell'acqua
e avete fatto! Ricordate di bagnarle se la terra è asciutta e un po' più in Primavera ed Estate,
ma mai troppo. Se preferite, potete spruzzare l'acqua invece che versarla. L'idea
della scatola è carina per un regalo ma una volta aperto, ovviamente, la scatola
deve restare aperta: hanno bisogno di respirare! Bene, godetevi le vostre piantine :)
