Home etc. is a contemporary homeware store locally owned and operated by Kelly Mitchinson, married to Garth and mum of two beautiful girls, Jaime 13 and Emma 11.
Beautiful homeware and gorgeous linen has always been a passion of mine.
I love to create stylish surroundings and fill my home with things that I love, even if it’s for a short time, as I fall in love with something new every season!!!!
For me its all about making everyday simplicity something special.
It’s great the way my little girls have developed a love and appreciation of pretty linens and lovely cotton sheets, even getting excited when we eat dinner on the Rockpool Blue dinnerware.
These are just some ways that we create a little luxury in our everyday lives.
Initially we opened the store as a nest franchise store back in 2009. We changed our name to Home etc. in October 2011 and started selling Wallace Cotton linen exclusively throughout the Bay of Plenty, along with a number of new funky and leading brands from around the world in Homeware.
We offer our customers great service and great product at affordable prices. We have something for everyone, whether it’s fashion forward or classic styling you require, our gorgeous store has it all.
You can give every room in the house a fresh new look, buy a functional item for the kitchen, spruce up the bedroom with beautiful affordable linen or treat yourself to an Ecoya candle.
- The store has a clean, unique mix of quality brands and exclusive home etc.branded homeware.
- We have lovely, knowledgable and friendly staff to help you with gift buying or home beautifying.

- We sell Home etc. gift vouchers when you can’t quite decide on the perfect gift.
