68 lessons | 7 hours
Transform your furniture with sustainable designer and upholsterer Micaela Sharp. In this course Micaela will guide you through every step of the process from start to finish, teaching you the different upholstery styles, what to look out for when choosing furniture, how to select, measure and pattern cut fabric, and key upholstery techniques including stripping back, piping, webbing and box cushion sewing. Through three increasingly challenging projects - a bespoke make-your-own headboard, a loose cushioned chair and a mid-century armchair - you will gain the confidence and mastery needed to tackle your own upholstery projects.

Upholstery for me is a perfect blend of all the things I love - being practical, using hand tools and working with fabrics, colour, pattern and really lovely textures.

Different Upholstery styles
I have chosen to teach you the modern method of upholstery; however, if you develop a passion for the craft during this course, you may want to challenge your new-found skills and explore traditional techniques.

I LOVE IT
“I have been loving the gardening courses so much…I couldn’t decide which one to get…so bought a subscription for the year. I love how each one has a different design (in terms of type and color) - so they truly feel like different experiences. So happy I signed up!”
JESSICA, US
It really is great value
“So much insight into a wonderful range of creative, interiors and gardening options. It is really great value. I've most enjoyed learning about paint with Edward Bulmer - and the practical aspects and insights in Rita's courses have also been so useful. ”

Very thorough courses
“Very thorough courses. Much better than some other "masterclass" type of websites. You get very actionable lessons. I learned a lot and took multiple courses. The floristry course especially was a favourite.”
