Transform tired furniture with paint, fabric and creativity. Give old pieces new life.
Learn MoreCreativity That's Kind to the Planet
At School of Create, we believe that the most beautiful things are made from what already exists. Our upcycling ethos runs through everything we do — from transforming tired furniture into statement pieces, to revamping old clothes into new fashion.
We're proud to teach skills that are not just creative, but sustainable. Every piece upcycled is one less item in landfill — and one more story told through craft.

What Our Students Say
Loved by Our Community
I couldn't even thread a machine when I started. Six weeks later I made my first dress completely from scratch. Mandy has an incredible way of making everything feel achievable — I honestly can't recommend School of Create enough.

The furniture upcycling course completely changed how I look at second-hand pieces. I've since transformed a charity shop sideboard and two dining chairs — my friends can't believe I did it myself. The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming, I've made friends for life.

I came for the qualification but stayed for the community. Getting my City & Guilds certificate was a proud moment — something I never thought I'd achieve at 47. The tutors are patient, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate. Best thing I've done for myself in years.
