Amy Shakeshaft is a Dorset and Guernsey area member of NAFAS, a trainee demonstrator and Level 4 florist she has made it through to compete for the RHS Chelsea Florist of the Year 2018. Amy competed in the South West heat at Bridgwater and Taunton College in February with a score of 81/100. There are 7 heats held across the country with the top 16 scoring competitors getting the opportunity to compete in the finals at the prestigious RHS Chelsea Flower Show in May.
For the heat Amy had to design and create a winter wedding floral stole to be worn by the bride at her wedding in a Scottish Castle. Amy’s inspiration for the stole came from the Scottish tartan, pheasant feathers and foliages.
Amy will be looking for sponsors to help cover the vast expense of competing at Chelsea and if you would like to contact her regarding sponsorship or to congratulate her you can contact her on shakeaj@gmail.com or 07411054589
