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

"This was a great course to build up my confidence with basic DIY. It was a fun day and I felt like I had achieved a lot in just one day. Since the course I have moved house and completed my first DIY project, which I wouldn't have approached so confidently had I not done this course. It was a great way to meet some lovely people, too, and overall just a very positive experience. "

The Boho Shed responded:

"I am delighted you got stuck in immediately Anna, that's fantastic news. It's all about building confidence and I'm so pleased you enjoyed the day. Thank you for your lovely review of the course."

Christine Pendlebury reviewed: Upholstery for Beginners Workshop - in Warrington, Cheshire

"Feel there were too many people for the room available. Unable to sit comfortably at the table. And limited room to work. Joanne was very accommodating, friendly and professional. I particularly liked the way she included everyone when using our work as an example for each stage. Uncomfortable that one person had a chronic cough which was worrying which I understand was difficult to do anything about"

The Boho Shed responded:

"Thank you for your feedback Christine which I will definitely take on board. Although the room is set up for ten people, a appreciate you were at the bottom end where people were passing to collect paint, bun feet etc. I will consider moving these items to a different area in future. In any case thank you for your kind words regarding the teaching of the workshop. "

Yvonne reviewed: Upholstery for Beginners Workshop - in Warrington, Cheshire

"Enjoyed the course at Grappenhall yesterday thanks to Jo for her patience and help making the stools. Maybe just having 8 on the course would be more comfortable as I felt it was a little cramped"

The Boho Shed responded:

"Thank you for your feedback Yvonne which I will definitely take into account. I'm so pleased you enjoyed the course."
