About Arts 'n' Crafts NZ
Arts 'n' Crafts NZ is a New Zealand-owned sole trader business supplying quality protective packaging to makers, artists, and small businesses across Aotearoa.
We specialise in clear OPP (oriented polypropylene) bags — durable, food-safe, and versatile. Our customers include artists protecting prints and cards, crafters packaging handmade goods, bakers wrapping biscuits and baked treats, and businesses needing reliable, professional packaging. We've supplied art galleries and institutions including Te Papa Tongarewa.
The business has an unexpected origin. It grew out of a side venture run by my mother, who makes greeting cards and started ordering bags for them — then friends asked where to get them, then strangers, and before long it had become its own thing. I took it over and it's been running ever since under the Arts 'n' Crafts NZ name, registered with the IRD and holding a NZBN.
Based in Auckland, we ship nationwide.
