Create Academy Avis 446

Create Academy is brilliant! I am so happy that I stumbled upon Create Academy! My only wish is that I could watch all the courses as they have so many wonderful teachers! I just loved my Rita Konig course!

Edit:
Thank you, Create Academy. As I suspected, the delay was an unintentional oversight and quickly and joyfully resolved. I would remove this review except that it shows the willingness of CA to meet the needs of its creative public, and I wish that to be known.
Very respectfully, Gabrielle

Having written a glowing review not long ago, after what I hope is a misunderstanding I must confess I need to submit a new one. In mid-April, Create Academy contacted me to let me know they would like to offer me a free course. They then asked if I would consider leaving a review of the course by Rita Konig. I accepted the offer and wrote the review. Since then I have heard nothing from them. I am hoping to retrieve a voucher or code for my course but after 4 emails and messages on Instagram I've heard nothing. This disappionts me greatly. I will happily delete this review once I hear from Create Academy.

I own 3 courses so far - Rita Konig, Gabby Deeming and Lisa Dawson, and I am thrilled with the amount of knowledge I have gained from each designer. I watch them over and over and refer back for those fabulous tidbits I've learned. I have put their ideas to use in my own home and get so excited when something I have learned makes sense in my interior. A huge fan of Create Academy and will continue to purchase new courses when my budget allows (Willow Crossley & Annie Sloan up next!).

I absolutely love these courses. I am a professional garden designer and find them invaluable. They are great because: they provide a wealth of knowledge from the presenter, well directed and very interesting. There is always something new to learn. You can revisit them and you have fact sheets to download too. Just brilliant!

Absolutely wonderful courses covering planting design & cultivation, floristry, interior design and crafts.

I’m on my second course from Dan Pearson, an absolutely inspirational figure in my landscape design career. Learning from experts in their fields and having life-long access to the courses stets Create Academy at the top for online creative learning. Classes are divided in bite-size videos and accompanied by worksheets so you can take it in your stride and recap as necessary.
Definitely recommend it and looking forward to undertaking more courses from Create Academy!

The naturalistic planting course taught by Dan Pearson is simply impressive. I loved the way Dan guided us through the process of naturalistic planting and taught us how to create a beautiful and sustainable garden.

The course content is very well-organized and easy to understand, even for those without prior gardening experience. Dan provides clear and helpful instructions and offers practical tips for selecting and caring for plants.

The course also includes a wealth of visual material, which is very useful for visual learners. The photographs and videos shown during the course are of high quality and clearly demonstrate how plants should be planted and cared for.

Overall, I would recommend this course to anyone interested in naturalistic gardening or creating beautiful and sustainable green spaces. Dan Pearson is an expert in his field and his passion for plants is contagious. Taking this course has definitely improved my ability to design and maintain a naturalistic garden.

I decided to try Molly Mahon's printing course and I am so glad I did ! She is an excellent teacher, very encouraging, as well as good at breaking down the subject matter into interesting sections; which are illustrated by her own experiences and personal tips. A visit to Charleston further enhanced the course, especially as it is on my list of places to visit.
I am only half way through the course but already feel the need to spread the word about how good it is, in order to encourage others, who might be wavering as I did, to take the plunge !

I was introduced to CA by a friend who raved about Willow Crossley's Floristry masterclass. I'm taking it now, enjoying the format. Each class has a focus. The beauty and simplicity appeal to me. The AV quality is exceptional. And Willow, she's delightful. She treats each of her flowers as a lady. I'm learning lots and applying what I know to create a more beautiful home for my family.

I took the Rita Konig class in November last year and enjoyed it immensely. Learnt so so much about design but also about sourcing interiors. I have already rewatched it again.

I live in NZ, so access to Create Academy online courses is brilliant for me. It allows the opportunity for learning from some wonderfully talented people, from the other side of the world, at a time to suit me.
I've been revisiting Rita Konig and Willow Crossley's courses. Both are excellent tutors, I have learnt so much from them and often go back and watch lessons again. I love that Willow continues to adds new lessons. I can highly recommend both courses.

Thoroughly excited to have 3 courses to get through, again and again, and indulge my styling approach to renovating my cute country cottage. Love how easy it is to access the courses anywhere anytime.

I have four courses so far (Rita Konig, Willow Crossley, Gabby Deeming, and Gemma Moulton) and I love each one. I frequently rewatch them because there’s so much to learn and I catch new information every time. Customer service is also great. Highly recommend!

I have just made a headboard for the first time using Michaela Sharp's Modern Upholstery course... It was fantastic! really simple, short videos that helped to really understand the process. I can't wait to have ago at the next two tutorials in the course, Upholstering a chair and making box cushions! 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

I am currently taking Micaela Sharp's Complete Guide to Modern Upholstery and it is wonderful. Micaela breaks down three upholstery projects that are easy enough for beginners to follow but offer many useful tips that a person of intermediate upholstery skills like myself gains a lot of knowledge throughout the course as well. The information is enhanced by the beautiful filming style and Micaela's soothing voice and straightforward teaching style. I would recommend these courses to anyone interested in learning a new skill!

I've purchased 2 courses now from Create Academy and absolutely loved them both! The videos are beautiful and tasteful, and the courses thorough and well worth the money.

I purchased Rita Konig's "Ultimate Guide to Interior Design" course in April 2022, and I'm currently making my way through it for the third time. I learn more each time I see it. Konig is of course a famous interior designer with a gorgeous style that's both elegant and cozy, but it turns out she's also a really good teacher. As a decorating enthusiast without any professional experience or training, her course is approachable and very informative.

Plus it's simply fun to hear her talk about her design philosophy, her likes and dislikes, and the things she's learned along the way. I loved the variety of settings for the course, from Rita's gorgeous and very English country house, which she shows us in some detail while illustrating the subjects she's teaching about, to her London flat (That wonderful salon wall!), to various shops and auction houses for lessons on what and how to buy as we decorate our homes.

The course comes with a beautifully produced and illustrated 141 page workbook that expands on the topics covered in the video part of the course and is a handy reference to have on hand when delving into decorating projects. I had mine printed and bound so I can refer to it often.

I highly recommend this course! Create Academy and Rita Konig did a beautiful job with it. It's worth every penny.

I've watched both of Dan Pearson's courses now and love the production. I really appreciate Dan's ideas and methods.

They do fall short as a 'course' though. There is little in the way of practical example of designing a planting structure in the second course. I was hoping for some real guidance on planting layouts, density, combinations. Yes, Dan talks about it, but I was hoping to come away with more skills in creating my own planting design. Admittedly, the course title is 'guide to...' so perhaps I expected too much!

I purchased the Rita Konig interior design course as I wanted to get more confident with my own interior decision making. Rita’s course has helped me develop my own personal taste and has given me a helpful step by step guide to home decoration as well as lifestyle advice. Would highly recommend to anyone embarking on a interior challenge, no matter how big or small.

Ordered willow’s course and it has changed my life and my floral business. I cannoy thank you guys enough for this amazing website and willow for letting us in on all her business. Cannot wait to order another course, thinking to get the Land Gardeners next. I do wish she tapped on more about how she create large scale things like arches for weddings and more business side like how to deal with clients, hoping to see more from willow for sure!

I have taken a number of Create Academy classes now and cant say enough good things about them. I am in the process of changing careers from healthcare to the interior design field, and have been taking these courses in lieu of going back to school for a design degree. I have gained so much knowledge and so many new skills from watching these courses and have been able to complete a number of interior design and crafting projects from what I’ve learned from them, the most recent of which was sewing a set of custom curtains for my sister using Gemma Moulton’s course on curtain making. I highly recommend Create Academy to everyone and can’t wait to take more of their classes!!!
