A GIFT shop on the edge of the New Forest will close for good later this month.

Owners have announced the closure of Amarje Design in Totton on December 30.

In a social media post, Amarje Dis said they had to "inform all our lovely customers that this will be our last month together." 

"We tried everything possible to keep this shop open in the last ten months, but it seems like on 30 December we will have to close the shop.

"Thank you to every single customer."

The firm started out as a furniture design business in Titchfield.

The gift shop, selling soaps, candles, bath bombs, scarves and trinkets, opened in Rumbridge Street in February.
