Janet Fearn reviewed: Furniture Painting Workshop (Levels 1&2 techniques covered) in Cheadle Gr Manchester

"Very comprehensive course with lots of information about products and techniques which was backed up with take away notes which was brilliant as I could concentrate on what Jo was saying rather than be scribbling away making my own notes. Jo kept the day flowing at a comfortable pace and once we started painting our own pieces moved evenly through the group offering guidance and advice whilst allowing for individual creativity. I was extremely pleased with the small table I painted, it looks fabulous! The Cheadle venue is in a lovely tucked away quaint location with plenty of free parking. The home baked treats were a delicious bonus :)"

The Boho Shed responded:

"What a lovely review Janet, thank you so much. I'm so pleased you enjoyed the day. You made such a gorgeous job of your table, I loved it! I hope you enjoy your new found hobby and I'm sure you will create some amazing pieces ongoing. x"

Eve reviewed: Beginners Upholstery Workshop in Preston, Lancashire - Make a Footstool

"Great one day introductory course. I learnt so many small things which, when put together, have made other projects so much more professional looking. I would have preferred to make a much larger footstool, however, my four year old granddaughter loves the one I made and has put it in her ‘den’. The course leader was friendly, knowledgeable and happy to help and answer any questions. I would be happy to do further courses with her. Thank you Jo!"

The Boho Shed responded:

"Thank you for your lovely review Eve. I’m pleased you got so much from the course and now feel your work is now more professional. In order for the course to work, everyone needs to do the same size stool but now you have the skills to make any size you wish. I look forward to seeing your lovely future creations. Many thanks again for your kind words. 🙏😊"

Julia reviewed: Beginners Upholstery Workshop in Preston, Lancashire - Make a Footstool

"Thanks Jo for a fabulous experience of my first ever upholstery day. You were so warm welcoming and knowledgeable. Sharing the day with others of mixed experience was great …….and even though I was a bit slow at times you were very patient and I didn’t feel rushed at all. I was delighted with the end result of my functional and beautiful footstool !! Would recommend highly and will definitely look for further opportunities to develop my skills !! "

The Boho Shed responded:

"Ahh Julia, thank you so very much for your kind words. You were an absolute pleasure to teach and I don’t remember you being slow at all. You made such a lovely job of your stool and I hope you enjoy it with pride. Many thanks again for your lovely review. X"
