Annick always had a creative side. From a very young age, she was interested in craftwork and was always looking for ways to create unique artistic works. As a kid, she used to make decorative macramé items, bracelets with scoubidou plastic strings and flowers from tissue paper. She always wanted to make a living out of her passion but never believed she had enough potential or skills to do so. In 2006, she joined Beautiful Localhands and the project helped her overcome her shyness, gain confidence in herself and her skills, and start her own workshop at home to create tailor-made clothes for her clients and prepare orders from hotels, including curtains, kitchen towels or garments repairs or tagging.
