Rockhopper77 reviewed: Beginners DIY & Home Maintenance Workshop in Preston, Lancashire (1 Day)

"I attended the Beginners DIY and home maintenance workshop this week and learnt so much. Having done very little in the way of DIY previously, I now have much more confidence to try different jobs around the home. It was great to have the opportunity to try new skills during the course. The notes provided during the learning session are a really useful prompt. And the home toolkit list will be essential in putting together some key items. It was a really lovely day, in a small group so very relaxed, and definitely worth attending. Thanks again Jo"

The Boho Shed responded:

"Thank you so much for your fantastic review of the course. I love it when people leave with more confidence and raring to go! I'm pleased you got so much out of the practical learning. Give me a shout if I can help further. Jo x"

Caroline Birch reviewed: Furniture Painting Workshop (levels 1&2 techniques covered) in Warrington, Cheshire

"Had a fab day with Jo at The Boho Shed on a furniture upcycling course. Learnt many techniques from how to prepare and paint furniture to applying crackle glaze, distressing techniques, waxing, highlighting and brushing. With a wealth of knowledge and experience and Jo’s friendly personality it was a fabulous day and I would highly recommend. "
