Kirstie's Handmade Britain

Flower Art (1x4)

Date de diffusion: Nov 09, 2011

Kirstie attempts to perfect the art of flower arranging for the floral art competitions at the Royal Cornwall Show. After the success of her cushion entry at her last show, can she continue her winning ways with flowers? Flower art is essentially creating a sculpture with flowers, but there are lots of official rules to follow when flower arranging, so before she can even begin Kirstie has to swot up. It can take years to master all the rules, but Kirstie only has a couple of weeks. And she's not entering just the one competition... Her first arrangement will be for the petite class, and to help Kirstie understand the basics Sioned Rowlands teaches her some tricks of the trade at Meadowgate. The second category is the imposed exhibit: an exam-style competition where all entrants are given identical flowers and components and a time limit of just two hours to make their own exhibit. But with nothing but her own imagination, and the challenge of remembering everything she's learnt to help her for the final day, can Kirstie keep her cool and produce something from scratch that could win her a prize?
