I have just completed the decorative painting course and I am absolutely bursting with ideas for my projects. Tess is the most wonderful and inspiring teacher and her simplification of really complex challenges makes anything seem possible. I am moving house and this course has really helped me to look at the future in a positive and creative way. Thank you SO much for your gentle and nurturing approach and for rekindling my creative mojo! X

I love all these courses. I am a flower farmer in the states and grow specialty cut flowers. I love to see what other flower lovers like to grow and especially what I call garden style arrangements. I am a proponent of arrangements I can cut from my garden and make a beautiful array. And I enjoy landscape design as well. Thank you so much for offering these courses! I have enjoyed them all!

I am really really enjoying the floristry course. Looking forward to going more. I find it thorough and freeing - I love it. Thank you.

I am taking 3 classes right now I Love the content, I am impressed by the quality of the content and instruction, I also enjoy the instructors they are truely professionals in their fields.

Value for money with such a good choice of learning with the experts. Great for visual learners!

I am absolutely loving Create Academy and look forward to trying out a new course this week. Rita Konig has been my favourite so far. Her interiors course is so inspiring. She has a lovely down to earth manner and some wonderful insider tips. I am certain the coming Autumn and Winter will be full of great new ideas for my home and garden.

I was looking for a course on designing your own cutflower patch when I stumbled across Sarah Raven's cut and come again course by Create Academy.
I can not recommend the course highly enough !!! It is very informative ,full of great advice and tips, to plan a year ahead with plenty of blooms to enjoy. You will find everything you need from planning, growing ,planting ,cutting ,conditioning ,all the way through arranging your flowers .
Sarah also shares her favorite varieties in the course .
Thank you for the great experience, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Now ,time to watch it again to take notes!

Wonderful content and variety. I signed up for the 1 year subscription a few days ago and I have already been inspired in so many ways. The videos are beautifully presented and I’m looking forward to working my way through them all!

I am enjoying The Cut and Come Again Class very much. I look forward to taking the Magnificent Pots class by Sarah Raven next.

I enjoy watching the lessons on decorating by Rita but I was looking for something with more fundamentals and less specialty shopping. There are so many references to having things custom made, hiring expensive experts and shopping at places that are not accessible, it’s hard to apply much of the advice. Still, there are many tidbits of information on what order to do things and “Don’t be afraid to…”, I think the purchase was worth it. It’s only one class of many, I may be able to find more applicable information as I watch more. Just be prepared to feel envious and discouraged at times if you are a normal person with a human budget. I still like her.

Last year I bought Rita Konig’s Ultimate Guide to Interior Design. I have watched and rewatched it. Not only is it informative but I found Rita’s relaxed friendly manner so soothing to watch. Each lesson is a good length and the course really does guide you through the whole process of decorating in an easy to digest format. I have followed this up by buying the newly released Advanced Guide to Interior Design, which is absolutely brilliant. You get a really lovely insight into Rita’s design process whilst redesigning her own home. Which is incredible btw. I’ve rewatched many of the lessons already. I thoroughly recommend both courses for anyone with an interest in interiors.

I started with Sarah Raven and Arthur Parkinson's courses on container gardening. They're both outstanding. As an experienced gardener, there were parts that I skimmed over, but they both delivered above and beyond my expectations and I've learned so much. I'm considering several of Arthur's combinations for next year - this summer I'm using one of Sarah's suggestions - or a close approximation, based on what I can get in Canada. Sarah has such a simple way of putting things (eg. bride, bridesmaid, gatecrasher) that I was able to immediately realize what was missing or had gone wrong with my containers in previous years. I can't wait to see how my containers improve over the next few seasons.

Unlike the longer term results of those courses, I've achieved instant results with the Willow Crossley's Floristry course. Really it's astounding. I've never done more than plonk flowers in a vase and now suddenly I'm able to make beautiful arrangements. I've even learned enough to see what could be improved next time. I'd love to see more floristry courses, as well as more information (a downloaded sheet would be helpful) on conditioning different flowers.

I never thought I had an interest in interior design, but I've watched a few of the Rita Konig lessons and I may change my mind. They are interesting and relaxing - a perfect way to de-stress - as have the others. The production values, editing, etc. of all the courses are excellent.

I'm looking forward to Dan Pearson, Jason Ingram, and so many other courses - and seeing where Create Academy goes next

The class with Tess Newall is everything one could want from this talented young woman. The quality is excellent however more close-ups from overhead needed as opposed to lovely angle (from the side) which makes it difficult to see the tiny detail.

Very inspiring and personal experience.

I am really enjoying Rita Konig’s course. There are bite size pieces chock full of useful information
, and the best thing is that the interface lets me start and stop watching very easily.
A+

I paid for a full membership and couldn’t access courses and a very kind Customer service person helped me to fix the problem and now i have full access and enjoying it.

Rita Konig's first series thoroughly satisfied my enthusiasm for interiors and quest to learn how to pull them off myself. I appreciate the ability to return to the series whenever I desire; I've watched all episodes two times now, taking notes for future reference. I'm looking forward to her upcoming second series and more of her wry humor.

Alidad explains each topic with great clarity, competence and helpfulness, suggesting original proposals and inviting you to find creative and unexpected solutions, without forgetting practicality and comfort. I particularly admire his style and would like to thank him for making his experience available.
You can find a lot of suggestions, even if your style is considerably different from his. I really learnt a lot and I suggest all interior design enthusiasts and beginners to take these lessons.

Sarah Raven's course is brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. It's remarkable that this lovely woman's life's work is accessible and so easy to follow.

It's the first of the courses I'm embarking on after purchasing the annual package. I'm really pleased. Looking forward to my next course.
