A must do! My daughter and I had a wonderful afternoon polishing stones we found on the beach. Steve is a very beautiful human and really made our stay a highlight. 💚🙏

I cannot rate this experience highly enough. This is the 3rd time I’ve visited and each time I’ve come away with beautifully carved pendants. Steve is patient and helpful through every stage and the carving studio is just as user friendly for girlz as it is boyz🙂. Thanks again Steve.

Steve and Katene gave awesome guidance and help and advice for a great finished bone carving that i am stoked with. It was a great set up with good equipment. I loved how they had a folder of designs that you were welcome to use, or you could create your own, or use a mix.
The smiles, encouragement and positive vibe was here. We once did carving on stewart island and it was a horrid experience - not at bonz n stonz.
In fact, the experience and creating was so awesome that we are going back tomorrow to do a jade carving.
Highly recommend this for a truely unique souvenir which you can be very very proud of.

Amazing experience from beginning to end.
Steve was really helpful in bringing my design from a piece to stone to a finished piece to life and gave me the confidence to complete my everything myself. I choose the bring own material option and loved that I could get on with it but still had help whenever I needed. Very good price for what you are getting and I had an amazing time. Would highly recommend to others.

Fabulous fun, produced really high quality pendants. Great activity, expert help and amazing fun. We planned for the day, I made two carvings in 4 hours and loved every second.
