2. Online Store Only
DH Designs operates as an online store only.
Orders are placed through the website unless otherwise arranged directly with DH Designs. Collection is not automatically available unless agreed with DH Designs before an order is placed.
3. Products
DH Designs sells craft, journaling, sewing, paper-based, handmade, and up-cycled creative products.
Products may include items made from or including:
- Old books
- Magazine pages
- Scrapbook paper
- Fabric
- Lace
- Thread
- Buttons
- Embellishments
- Handmade or assembled craft supplies
Many DH Designs products are handmade, up-cycled, limited, or one-of-a-kind.
Because of this, product colours, paper patterns, page designs, textures, embellishments, and final appearance may vary slightly from product photos or from previous products.
These natural variations are part of the handmade and up-cycled nature of the products and are not considered defects.
4. Product Images and Descriptions
DH Designs makes reasonable efforts to display product images, colours, sizes, descriptions, and prices as accurately as possible.
However, actual colours may appear slightly different depending on device screens, lighting, photography, and the handmade or up-cycled nature of the product.
Product images are intended to show the style, theme, and general appearance of the product. Where a product is handmade, up-cycled, or one-of-a-kind, the final item may have natural variation.
Customers should read product descriptions carefully before placing an order.
5. Pricing
All prices are displayed in South African Rand.
DH Designs is not VAT registered. VAT is therefore not charged unless this changes in future.
Prices may change at any time without prior notice. Price changes will not affect orders that have already been successfully placed and paid for.
If a product is incorrectly priced due to a technical, typing, or system error, DH Designs reserves the right to cancel the affected order and refund the customer where payment has already been made.
6. Payment
DH Designs uses PayFast as a payment method.
Orders are processed only after payment has been successfully confirmed.
Customers must ensure that payment is completed correctly. If payment fails, is declined, is cancelled, or cannot be verified, the order may not be processed.
DH Designs does not store full card details on the website. Card and payment processing is handled through the payment provider’s secure systems.
7. Orders
After placing an order, the customer should receive an order confirmation by email.
Customers are responsible for checking that all order details are correct before completing checkout, including:
- Product selection
- Quantities
- Billing details
- Delivery details
- Contact information
- Shipping method
- Total order amount
DH Designs may contact the customer if additional information is needed to process an order.
DH Designs reserves the right to refuse, cancel, or refund an order where:
- Payment cannot be confirmed
- The product is unavailable
- The customer provided incorrect or incomplete information
- Fraud or misuse is suspected
- A pricing, stock, or website error occurred
- Delivery cannot reasonably be completed
8. Stock Availability
Products are subject to availability.
Because many DH Designs products are handmade, limited, or one-of-a-kind, some items may not be restocked once sold.
If an ordered product is no longer available, DH Designs will contact the customer to arrange a suitable solution, which may include a replacement option, store credit, or refund.
9. Shipping and Delivery
DH Designs currently uses Pudo as the shipping method.
Delivery options and costs are displayed during checkout where available.
Customers must ensure that delivery details are accurate and complete before placing an order.
DH Designs is not responsible for delays caused by:

Estimated processing and delivery timeframes are provided as a guide and are not guaranteed unless expressly stated in writing.

10. Risk and Ownership
Risk in the products passes to the customer once the order has been delivered, collected, or handed to the delivery provider for completion of the delivery process, subject to applicable consumer protection law.
Ownership of products passes to the customer only once full payment has been received and confirmed.
11. Returns, Refunds, and Exchanges
Returns, refunds, and exchanges are handled according to the DH Designs Returns & Refunds Policy.

Custom, personalised, made-to-order, or made-to-specification products may not be eligible for return unless they are defective, damaged, or incorrect.

12. Cancellations
Customers may request cancellation before an order has been packed, dispatched, or processed for delivery.
Once an order has been packed or dispatched, the Returns & Refunds Policy applies.
