Each small-group class is inspired by the Australian calendar and moments of connection, celebration and reflection — offering space to create, slow down and reconnect with your creativity.
Love and Friendship

Feeling Fruity

This is a reflective and uplifting evening — a chance to slow down, connect, and celebrate the women who inspire us, including ourselves.
Seasonal Change
Thu 19 March 2026 · 6:30pm | 10 spots
As autumn quietly arrives, nature begins its shift — softer light, deeper tones, and a sense of transition. This class focuses on working with seasonal materials, movement, and balance, embracing the beauty of change rather than resisting it.

An inspiring session for those wanting to create beautifully while treading lightly.
Mother
Thu 7 May 2026 · 6:30pm | 10 spots

The Ocean
Thu 4 June 2026 · 6:30pm | 10 spots
As winter settles in, we turn to the ocean for inspiration — moody blues, soft neutrals, organic movement, and layered textures. This class explores fluidity and flow, creating designs that feel calming, expansive, and quietly powerful.
Perfect for those drawn to nature, depth, and a slower creative pace.
Solstice Solace
Thu 18 June 2026 · 6:30pm | 10 spots
Held close to the winter solstice, this intimate evening is about rest, reflection, and finding beauty in stillness. We’ll work with seasonal materials and muted tones, creating designs that feel grounding and contemplative.

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 have completed her TAE Qualification (Cert IV Training and Assessment) at Chisholm in March 2025 and is now a fully accredited trainer and assessor!
