   Recently attended the workshop in Warrington. Great location & brilliant day.Jo was very knowledgeable, informative & great fun. Learned some DIY skills & techniques so now feel much more confident about tackling some projects/repairs without having to pay a handy man. Thank you for the constant cups of tea & the delicious scones. Thanks again Jo

   I can recommend the DIY workshop very highly. Jo is very welcoming and friendly and made everyone feel at home. Although she has a lot of experience she tailored her teaching to people with none or very little, which was perfect. There was ample time to practice skills. Jo is very encouraging and explained everything, including where we went wrong, which is so important. She shared lots of information with notes to take away and a follow up e-mail with details of suitable tools to buy and where to find them. The venue was great, the people in the group were lovely and delicious cakes and scones made by Jo's mum were available all day. I'd recommend this workshop to anyone starting out on DIY or needing to improve their skills.

   What a fab day course! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Jo is a top notch tutor and generally gorgeous human. Practically knowledgeable, patient and flexible when working with the group. Whether you are an absolute beginner, have specific jobs around the house you want to do yourself, or if you just need some confidence building and a safe space to ask questions and pad out your knowledge, I can't recommend highly enough.

   I had the pleasure of attending one of ‘the boho shed’ upholstery workshop’s this week. Great bunch of ladies and Jo was a fantastic tutor. A really relaxed atmosphere set inside beautifully maintained gardens. Very proud of my footstool that Jo helped me build from scratch, well worth the money!

   I took part in Jo's upholstery beginners' course and this was my first time doing this type of art work. It was a great class, where Jo provided us with amazing tips and I finished the class with a lovely step-stool to bring back home. Jo is absolutely lovely, patient, and full of knowledge to share with her students. I would recommend her class for anyone who wants to try something new. Thank you Jo, and oh I almost forgot about the delicious cakes!

   Thank you to Jo for the most wonderful day. We spent the morning learning and trying out different painting techniques and then in the afternoon it was time to try out our new skills on our very own piece of furniture. I would highly recommend this workshop (and the yummy cakes), all Jo's hints and tips were great. I can't wait to get painting at home. Thank you x

   What an excellent day out, I haven’t enjoyed myself so much for an age! We started the day with all the ladies on the workshop chatting and introducing themselves and then Jo offered us wonderful home made scones with jam and cream or home made delicious chocolate cake, made by her mother. Tea and coffee and biscuits were freely available all day long for anyone to help themselves. Jo is very kind and patient and is an extremely talented lady. First things were a walk through of the process, showing us the stages of making the foot stool, which we then went back through step by step as we carried out construction of our amazing little foot stools. We painted/waxed our wooden feet and then started to layer up the foam and filling before we broke for lunch. As we worked through the steps, Jo would use each of our footstools as examples to show us what to do next. The delight we all felt when we finally got to put our fabric on the footstool was showing in all our faces. We were so proud of what we had made The ladies on the course all got on well and it was an excellent fun day. Jo gave us clear instruction and was only too happy to help anyone of us if we needed it. My footstool turned out so much better than I thought it would. I would certainly recommend this workshop for a great day out to meet new people and most importantly to meet Jo and take her instruction in making a gorgeous footstool. Anyone who isn’t sure should take this as a ‘definitely go do it’ Thank you Jo, for a fabulous day!

   I really enjoyed my day at the Boho Shed making a little footstool for my grandson with a lovely friendly group of ladies. This is the first thing I have made for a long time & Jo's expertise & instructions made it a lovely relaxing experience alongside the tea & cakes! I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn new skills and gaining confidence whilst doing so, & I am very pleased with my footstool. Many thanks Jo .
