Beautiful things with a good story

The following applies to everything: it must be a beautiful product with a good story and made with love. This can be fair trade (the snake baskets), handmade (jewelry from By Loffs) or simply solid and sustainable, such as the tableware from RICE and the toys from DJECO. Hella’s Home is the only dealer of the Danish quality brand RICE and the brand DJECO does it together with one other dealer in Eindhoven. Hella is most proud of the jewelry from By Loffs. These bracelets and earrings made of glass beads on a thin wire are handmade in Nepal by women from home.

Proud of the neighborhood

The store opened in July 2017 and can be found on the part of Edisonstraat that is still under development. The choice to establish the store in the Woensel-West district is a conscious one; Hella lives within walking distance and can therefore combine her life as an entrepreneur and mother well. She is proud of her multicultural neighborhood, there is a good social vibe and many residents are now regular customers. It is not just about coming to buy something, but also about having a chat, the social aspect of shaping the neighborhood together.

Workshops and where else can you find Hella?

Hella regularly organizes fun workshops in the store, such as dotting on porcelain, hand and brush lettering and making your own RICE etagère. To promote her store, Hella can be found at the monthly Feel Good Market on Strijp-S and she has a stall at (international) Ladies Nights or most recently at International Women’s Day in the Eindhoven library. And if you are unable to visit Hella; fortunately there is also a webshop, with free wrapping service.
