Spending time with friends is so important to the balance in our lives. Making new friends is equally as important. And learning new skills adds value and capabilities to our day to day. There’s many benefits to getting together with friends, such as improving your mood, building confidence, a sense of belonging, increased feelings of security, reducing stress, emotional support and shared experiences. All of which lead to a healthier, more enriched lifestyle!
BHI is proudly introducing our Design and Wine Class Series! We are excited to provide opportunities for you to learn something new, enjoy time with friends and create new experiences - not just in our classes, but your very own homes. BHI’s Design and Wine will offer three class options throughout the fall. You can choose to do one, two, or all. This is a lovely chance to get together with others, acquire awesome design skills AND enjoy a glass of wine and cheese board to top it off! Each class will have a different focus, but all classes will be loads of fun and learning. Everyone loves their house but lets really delve into how to make it your space – your home – your Zen! Join us for a night of Design Therapy! Class information below:
