We are back! 🥳 Shop is back open for all your gifting needs! Hope you’ve all had a lovely break and the start to the new year has been positive so far.

2025 has been the toughest year for us in the 8 years of being at number 28 DHS. December used to be the month that helped carry us thought the quiet in the new year but that’s no longer the case. December’24 saw our first drop of 25% on December’23 and last December another 25% drop on 2024. Generally the average spend has gone down massively so we are really trying to do what we can to not only survive but fight and turn the business around. Brick and mortar shops are no joke, the large overheads alone are crippling for any small independent business at the moment. On top of that our fair business model means we have no income if we don’t make sales as we only take a commission on sold items and don’t charge our traders any rent. Footfall isn’t the issue. Our offering isn’t the issue - if we got a pound for every time someone says cute, want or amazing we’d do quite well. People are just not spending as freely as they used to and everyone is feeling the squeeze. So 2026 will see some big changes so we can make sure we can continue doing what we do. Watch this space!

A big thank you to all that have supported us thus far, we appreciate your every visit, chat and a smile. And a massive thanks to all our traders for being patient and understanding during such a tricky year. It wasn’t only tough business wise but personally too. Family and health issues had thrown in more obstacles that we could handle which brought on more disruption - it caused unfortunate delays in comms and admin - something that can’t be avoided if the business only relies on two people to run it in every aspect of its needs. We are only human after all. We will be working very hard over the next few months to change things for the better for all, our customers, traders and ourselves.

Love Zuzana and Dan xXx

Last chance! Today is our last day of 2025 so come tick off the final name of your list before 5pm. ✔️🎄

Dan and I don’t get time off during the year so we take a couple of weeks holiday during the festive season to see our family and get back second week of January. So we will be off grid until then. 2025 was our toughest year yet and we definitely need time out to evaluate and recuperate.

We wish everyone a wonderful Christmas, we hope it’s peaceful and full of love and laughter ❤️

Thank you all for your support, we appreciate every visit and every mention. 🥰

Love Zuzana & Dan

Still looking for the perfect gift? has a lovely range of winter scents across their hand-poured vegan candle and wax melt range. Including some fancy champagne candles!

Jon started XII Trials whilst working from home and took inspiration from mythology and ancient heroes, because these characters are often flawed and imperfect they make great characters to learn from. XII Trials donates a portion of it’s revenue to charity to support physical and mental wellbeing and sometimes let’s it’s members decide which charity the money should go to.

popped in yesterday with his latest works celebrating our local area. You can now find his new works ‘Deptford High street’ screenprint and a digital ‘Deptford Tube logo’ print in our gallery. Sam Kerridge is a South London based illustrator, streetartist and printmaker. Sam’s work aims to challenge our perceptions of space and utilizes kaliedoscpic visions that trick the eye. His geometric structures are inspired by patterns formed in crystal rock formations, to invoke the ever changing urban environment and how they imprint on our memories.

…and if you’re down the high street check out his work on Deptford Christmas Tree!

Fun & fabulous cards, prints, stickers as well as a 2026 calendar by .co can now be found at DDA! 💕

Lucky Alice was founded by German-Chinese illustrator Anna Tjan in the wake of the 2020 pandemic. What began at the kitchen table in her East London home as a creative reset and a way to reconnect with her art school roots quickly grew into something much bigger. Sketch by sketch, idea by idea, Anna found herself building a vibrant world of illustrated goods that aim to strengthen connections, spread smiles and add a little magic to the everyday.

At its heart, Lucky Alice is about striking a balance between fun and feeling. With a signature style that pairs Anna’s strong, hand-drawn visuals with uplifting messages, each piece celebrates both playfulness and depth. Their paper goods are designed not only to look beautiful, but to feel meaningful. From a cheeky card for a friend’s birthday to a colourful print that brings a little magic to your walls, Lucky Alice makes stationery with soul, designed to add joy to your day.

Lucky Alice isn’t just about pretty things — it’s about creating with purpose. Sustainability is at the forefront, with eco-friendly materials and mindful production choices guiding every product. The brand celebrates diversity and inclusion, champions strong voices and stories that deserve to be seen and heard. Above all, Lucky Alice is built on connection: sharing warmth, celebrating friendships, and finding colour in the everyday.
