I'm Mina - or Marina
Mother of four wonderful children and the heart behind Mina Eluna.
Mina Eluna has grown over many years. During a time when life often involved juggling family, responsibilities, and personal dreams. There were moments of doubt and phases when I didn't know if this path could continue. And yet, there was always this quiet trust – in small steps, in development, and in moving forward.
Today, Mina Eluna feels more mature. Calmer. More authentic.
Since my youngest started childcare, space has opened up – for new ideas, for growth, and for more conscious creation.
Mina Eluna is a lovingly run one-woman business with Waldorf-inspired aesthetics, a lot of heart, and a deep connection to nature.
In my shop, you'll find selected toys, books, art and postcards, picture frames, and special pieces for soulful spaces – things that can touch children and adults alike.
I am inspired by nature, by the course of the year, and by a mindful childhood. Many products are lovingly handmade or carefully selected by me.
What drives me is gratitude.
For every single package I get to pack.
For the exchange with you.
For the trust placed in me.
Feel welcome – to browse, linger, or take a little piece of soul-warming comfort with you.

How it all began
My interest in children's clothing grew over many years with increasing passion. Already at the age of 19, I gained my first formative experiences while working for a well-known mail-order company for ecological products related to pregnancy and early childhood.
With the birth of my first child at the end of 2008, the topic of nature and conscious use of materials became an integral part of my life. In spring 2010, this led to the idea of designing and making individual children's clothing from high-quality natural fabrics myself.
Together with my mother, who had many years of experience in sewing and pattern development, I founded a small family business. While I developed designs and selected fabrics, my mother implemented everything with loving craftsmanship – together we ensured the final touches. In December 2016, my mother decided to leave the family business for professional reasons.
Since then, I have continued Mina Eluna alone and have gradually pursued the path independently.
For many years, clothing played a central role. In addition to my own designs, I carried selected ecological brands such as Engel and Living Crafts, which I championed for a long time with conviction. For a while, a small second-hand corner was also part of the shop – a conscious decision for high-quality, pre-worn clothing.
Over time, the focus shifted. Clothing gradually moved into the background, and new things came into focus.
The project, which originally began under the name MesomioO, evolved and finally found its current form in Mina Eluna. Since 2019, a new world has grown around art cards, picture frames, and lovingly selected decorations.
Today, Mina Eluna is a place for Waldorf-inspired art, selected toys, and special pieces that fill rooms with tranquility, warmth, and imagination.
