Beautiful digital artwork that I can’t wait to display in my kitchen and the recipes itself is deeeeeelicious!! My whole whanau & especially my tough critic (nanny) loved it too and are asking for another batch!
I'm still kicking myself for not getting all 4 of the antique pins when they were offered as a bundle. By the time I got organised some had sold out. I bought the huia feather and the kawakawa leaf and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, them both. They look elegant, they pin securely and I get lots of beautiful comments about them. Wearing either pin really brightens my day, and makes me look good. Thank you for making my tired school clothes look special!
I got this badge to wear on my lanyard at school (alongside my Toitu te Tiriti badge) to show my suport for te Tiriti and that as a pakeha New Zealander I am proud to also be able to call myself tangata tiriti. The badge is great quality and affordable. Delivery was prompt. I am really happy with my purchase.
This pukapuka is absolutely stunning. It weaves together so many meaningful concepts and truly serves as a portal into a rich world of mātauranga Māori. Through its gentle storytelling, it explores whakapapa, ritual, and connection, while also guiding readers toward other valuable resources such as Ngahuia Murphy’s incredible work.
One aspect I especially loved was the presence and support of the young girl’s Pāpā. Growing up, kōrero about ikura were treated as women’s business only, and often left the men in my whānau feeling uncomfortable or distant from the conversation. Seeing a father included so naturally and lovingly in this story feels powerful. It reflects a shift toward restoring balance, normalising these sacred discussions, and creating space for our tāne to stand alongside our wāhine.
Publications like this help dissolve shame and disconnection, instead nurturing agency, understanding, and pride in our young wāhine as they move through this important rite of passage.
