Créations & savoir-faire: from niche fair to sociological phenomenon

Founded in 1996 by Aude de Thuin, a visionary entrepreneur, Créations & savoir-faire has established itself as the reference show for creative hobbies and DIY_ACCEPTED in France. For the past 30 years, the show has kept pace with a rapidly changing market, remaining a source of inspiration, a place for experience and a showcase for the rich and varied product range offered by its exhibitors.

From the come back of cross-stitch and knitting, to thedemocratisation of fine art, via the feminisation of DIY, the rise of scrapbooking, and the return ofsewing among the younger generations, the show has played a driving role. A veritable catalyst for trends, it has helped make handmade no longer a marginal activity, but a genuine sociological phenomenon.
