What you should know about Hands Ashford NZ

Craft in Christchurch, Art Craft in Christchurch, Handicraft Products in Christchurch

Hands is overflowing with craft supplies and is determined to keep in touch with the latest craft trends and be of service to their old and young customers alike. During the worldwide depression of the 1930's, Walter Ashford coverted the family laundry into a tiny workshop in one of the most depressed suburbs in Christchurch, New Zealand. On the fifth day, with a stool on the handlebars of his bicycle, he rode the city knocking on doors and learned first hand that quality and value resulted in orders. He repaired furniture and began making anything from picture frames to chicken coups. Because Walter was a practical man with a flair for design, his staff and production line expanded. Walter's greatest assets were his ability to design simple practical products and the specialised machinery to manufacture them. The first model was a double drive model but Walter soon discovered that spinners wanted to change the bobbins with ease. Then in 1965 Mrs Pamela Simcox knocked on the factory door and said Please Mr Ashford, make me 10 spinning wheels . Spinning groups mushroomed all over the country and orders also began coming in from Australia, America and Europe. Walter and Joy's children now all play their part in continuing the Ashford Legacy. Gay opened Past Times in Australia and Heather opened Hands Ashford NZ Ltd , now more commonly known as Hands Craft Store.
