NOTE: New additions will appear at the tiop of this list.

Shout Out if any local SE London Creatives wish to be included PLEASE do add your details via comment or PM PREFERABLY with a link rather than just a 'name'

Big Thank You to Kate Alexander AND Vicky Cole from Nunheadrocks for two posts, encouraging us to 'buy local for Christmas - well that goes for all year - anyway I am sharing here is list of all the suppliers that have 'buy on line' option.

Note: The initial name is merely to acknowledge members of this group that made the effort to share the information.

Apologies that this list is in no particular order took me enough time as it is to put this together, but hey this is a start

Kate Alexander 2nd Nov 2020, So. Lockdown timing the worst as starting to think about shopping for Christmas. However I?d rather not spend all my money at Amazon/big brands etc. So what are your recommendations for local producers/makers/shops to support this Christmas?

Vicky Cole 2nd Nov 2020, Hello! I hope this is allowed...With the current situation we want to support small independent businesses more than ever this Christmas. We are making up hampers of local treats and presents for family members this year. If you have a local shop or business or know of any around that will be selling online, can you post a link?

I am a Peckham based textile designer, but I've also made a quilt themed Christmas card collection, and also stockings and ornaments from fashion industry excess fabrics.

Michael Peacock, This wonderful collective is right on our doorstep, you can actually have a 'shop window' view at The Hill Station Community Cafe, Kitto Rd SE14 5TW.

Last Christmas my sister's tree in Angelsey North Wales was adorned entirely with handmade unique decorations from the shop, there really are gifts here to suit all AND currently there is a vast array of Christmas cards.

Michael Peacock, I am absolutely baffled, for over a month now delightful prints from original silkscreens from the 1960's by artist Gillian Burrows, have been on display at The Hill Station Community Cafe, Kitto Rd SE14 5TW.

Yet to date not ONE print has been sold, OK three sales now, just had to be the Peacock, TIM the Tiger and Hippo and Friends - these are prints for the size and quality are great value, so please top up your basket right now with some Gillian Burrows creations.

Francesca Clarke, Wonderful! May I add my garden design business at Geum Garden Design. Just posted

the following on my FB and Insta pages: Christmas present idea!

At Geum Garden Design I've been having loads more enquiries about garden consultations recently. We're increasingly getting into our outdoor spaces and seeing the health and wellbeing benefits of gardening, but not everyone has the cash for a full redesign, so it makes sense.

SO, if you want to give the gift of a consultation or hands-on workshop this year, do get in touch. Happy to talk planting combinations for borders, collaborate on window box/pot planting designs, advise on veg and fruit growing, or discuss hard landscaping and design options.

I'm available by the hour, and can design vouchers to present to friends and family. [email protected] / 0781 867 4015
