Actually, as is so often the case, it all started very small. And with a newly won hobby in times of the COVID pandemic.
At that time, co-founder Nina started making macrame and selling them on Instagram and Etsy. The interest in the handmade macramees grew and so Nina decided together with her partner Marcel to gather all their courage and turn this hobby into a profession. Nina's event management studies and her creativity perfectly complement Marcel's business administration studies and his independence due to the family business, making the two of them the perfect team.

Little by little they built up a small online shop and the business continued to grow within their own four walls.
The dressing room became a storage room, the office a packing station, the dining table a workplace and the garden shed became a storage room for dried flowers. More and more ideas and a tireless zest for action led to MAHINA becoming what we are today.

MAHINA is not only an online shop, but also a place for exchange and inspiration. We have set ourselves the goal of combining living ideas, creativity and community and sharing our passion with you. We love meeting new people and getting in direct contact with you. That is why we are particularly pleased to offer workshop events and private workshops for you at regular intervals. Our decoration rental is also something very special for us. Being able to accompany people on their big day with our decorations and to help make it something special has always been a dream of founder Nina.

In our online shop, we no longer only offer our handmade macrame, but also a range of carefully selected products from other manufacturers. We strive to constantly expand our range for you and want to give small manufacturers who are still at the beginning the chance to bring their products to the market. After all, we started out small ourselves. With a pop-up store in our warehouse and exhibitions at markets and events, we would like to offer you the opportunity to visit us personally at regular intervals and to discover and get to know us and our products on site. We are proud that we have already been able to implement many of our visions together with you and have grown into a small team of seven people.
The young couple behind MAHINA are bursting with creativity, business acumen and a love for details that is reflected in all areas of their work.

Our ideas are far from exhausted and we can hardly wait to grow beyond ourselves together with you and to realize further visions. We have been working from our own four walls day after day since the beginning of our MAHINA journey to offer you the best service and we are therefore very pleased that you have found us!
