We’ve just come onboard as a seller for Native Woodcrafts decorative panels.
Over then next few days, we’ll be updating our website to include these amazing panels. In the mean time, checkout their extensive range online at https://www.nativewoodcraft.co.nz/shop/

21 years ago on the 1st of May 2005 : I remember unscrewing this Steel sign on the Workshop door, and heading over to the local Sign Writer to have my Name and Cell number installed

As I had just 'taken over' Native Woodcraft as a going concern

Nothing major has changed in the layout, or range or products

Though since then the Fax, and 'zip zap' card machine have both been well and truly retired, and the grave-o-graph has not been as busy as it used to

Other than the 'build up' of the Creative Garden Panel Range, aimed at the Landscaping industry, they still make their way all over NZ via online sales and existing network of Stores, our newest addition to our online Retailer finder is Timberthings - Pine Outdoors Taupo

A sample pack is currently waiting at the door for collection by our courier

The core of the business is still Hand Carved Gifts for the Aotearoa Tourism industry

Utilising Ocean Shell Studios - Giftware and Craft Paua for embellishment's

I've added my touch with a few new items which are still in demand

We're one of 'those' little-BIG producers in NZ

These days it is 'just' me in the factory, attempting to shuffle priorities and align processes so orders get made with minimal delay

As well as taking on the local Lock-Smith basics just over 10x years ago, with backup from KC Locksmiths Palmerston North (call them for the 'big jobs')

Supported by PoutamaTrust and a registered Buy New Zealand Made business

At the moment I'm thinking of all of those I have worked with in my time here since 1998 the things I've learned, and the stories that have been told in the "Smoko room"

Lets see if I am still here in another 30x years eh

Cheers JM 🍻
