Here is a little about us...

Cre8tive Gems began in 2014 in Hawke’s Bay, and today we are still proudly local, small, and family-run by Amber and Brent McArthur.

​

Our focus is “for your life and home,” creating products that bring a little joy, comfort, and fun into everyday living. We make natural bath, body, and home products with a crystal twist, carefully choosing ingredients and crystals that support relaxation, wellbeing, and a little bit of magic in your day. Every product is handmade with care, with a focus on quality, reducing waste, and supporting our community.

​

Our candles and melts are hand-poured using 100% natural soy, our wheat bags are made using clean wheat, and our reed diffusers are created for beautiful, long-lasting fragrance. Our bath and body products are made without synthetic oils or butters, petroleum-based detergents, phthalates, or parabens. Our beard oils, balms, and lip balms are crafted with high-quality, skin-loving ingredients designed to nourish naturally and our gift boxes are created with thought and care.

​

Where possible, we minimise plastic, offer refills, and look for ways to reduce waste because we believe small choices add up to a big difference.

​

In 2022 we added 3D printing to our creative mix, and it has quickly become a big part of who we are. Our feature product, the cheeky and much-loved naughty gnomes, have travelled all over New Zealand and around the world, heading off to new homes and spreading smiles.

​​

When you buy from Cre8tive Gems, you are supporting a local Hawke’s Bay family business and keeping handmade and 3D-printed creativity alive in our community. If you see us out and about at markets and events you will usually spot Nana Cre8tive Gems, also known as Shirley supporting the team.

​

Thank you for purchasing from us. We hope you enjoy our products and our naughty gnomes as much as we love creating them.
