School Owner and Founder is Sharon Bermingham; a second generation Irish florist of over 16 years. Sharon brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her studio floristry business in Berwick (Bunty and Fuzz Florist) and has built up a solid network of local, national and international clients as well as industry contacts worldwide. Her style is elegant and modern, with influences from Ireland, the UK and Europe. With the added convenience of being close to local flower growers and having access to locally-grown, market fresh produce several times a week, Sharon prides herself on being able to meet customers' needs within today's budgetary confinements.

Sharon opened her first retail store at 71 High Street, Berwick in January 2020. In December 2022, she made a pivotal decision coming out of the pandemic to move her business back Online.

“With Covid, came the downturn in foot traffic on Berwick’s previously thriving High St so the decision to work remotely was made for me after a very challenging few years. I continued to design and deliver amazing flower arrangements and bouquets, whilst also exploring some new adventures in Event Floristry and Floristry Education. My family, my loyal customer base and my local community continue to be so supportive and I am forever grateful to be in a position to follow my purpose in life with a new energy for 2025”

Entering her “Studio Era” in August 2024 Sharon relocated the business to the beautiful Gloucester Avenue, Berwick. “From this central location, we now have more space to service online orders, to consult with clients and we now have a permanent classroom set up for our Flower School!”

With a true passion for the industry, Sharon delights in sharing her knowledge, skills and experience with others through the many hobby classes and workshops she tutors both privately and in the local community.

“Building on the classes and workshops that I have been teaching since 2016, I now want to offer pre-requisite, competency based training that can potentially lead students to a future study pathway/ready for work opportunity”.

Sharon is excited to be completing her TAE Qualification (Cert IV Training and Assessment) at Chisholm in early 2025 and becoming a fully accredited trainer!
