"I really enjoyed the Beginners Upholstery Workshop. Jo is a lovely lady and very talented, keen to share her knowledge, she helped everyone individually and as a group. It was interesting to learn about all the materials needed for the footstool. Drinks and cakes were provided and I particularly appreciated that they were made dairy free when I mentioned my dietary requirements in advance of the course. Jo's friendliness helped to make it an enjoyable sociable day and I was very pleased and proud of my completed footstool!"

Louise Scott reviewed: Upholstery for Beginners Workshop - in Warrington

"Had an absolutely fab day at the stunning Boho Shed based in Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden today learning how to make a footstool. Jo made us all feel very welcome and put us at ease straight away. She is very patient and explained everything in a clear and easy to follow way. She explained everything from the choice of fabrics through to the materials needed and tools we would be using. Everything was there ready for us to all create wonderful and individual footstools and I think it is safe to say every one of us left there happy. I would highly recommend and hope to attend another of her courses in the future. Thankyou Jo and thanks to your Mum for lovely cakes !! Louise x"

"Fantastic day a The Boho Shed!! Jo is such a warm and welcoming person, I immediately felt at ease in her class. She made sure everything we needed for the day was provided so it was really good value for money (and convenient).

"A great relaxed and welcoming class. Jo was obviously very passionate and experienced in furniture painting, which she happily shared with the group and individually to each person. We learnt many techniques which will help in future restorations. This was the first time I have attempted furniture painting, it has given me motivation to carry on. The 5 hour course flew by with so much to enjoy. Thank you for a lovely day. "

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

"Jo's knowledge of paints, waxes and the various techniques is vast. She explains things simply and inspires you to have a go yourself on boards she provides for the purpose, before choosing, with her help, how to make the most of your own piece. I felt relaxed and enjoyed every minute. A great setting, great tuition, good company and gorgeous strawberry scones! I hope to have a go at upholstery next. Thank you Jo for a truly lovely day."

The Boho Shed responded:

"Thank you so much for your gorgeous review and very kind words Fran. It’s not just about learning to paint furniture effectively, it’s also about having a really enjoyable and sociable day out, so I’m delighted you managed to relax and have fun. I look forward to seeing you again soon. X"

Anna reviewed: Beginners DIY & Home Maintenance Workshop in Warrington, Cheshire (1 Day)

"I had such a fun day on the DIY and home maintenance workshop. Jo is lovely. Very welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. It was a nice small group of 4 so it was very easy to get one on one time. I have come away from the workshop feeling confident to start some of the tasks I’ve been reluctant to tackle, such as putting up shelves and sealing gaps in the doorways and skirting boards among other things. I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone."

"Anna, thank you so very much for your lovely review. It means so much to me to see people’s confidence grow during the day and I can’t wait to see this continue. 🙏💕"
