Milena

Children are behind many changes in parents. It also happened in our family. With the arrival of new personalities - Samuel and Ondrej. While searching for their place in the community, they caused their parents more than one crisis, but they also brought a lot of humor. Balancing on such a swing requires a temporary escape. At least for a while, devote yourself to something that brings you balance. I, the mother of two boys, discovered sewing for myself. Something practical, but also very creative and satisfying the need to see the result immediately after the work. I started with the newly discovered skill at a time when the theme of sustainability resonated with me. Naturally, the two were connected. Poznanie that it is possible to live more sustainably with respect to nature also in the field of textiles made me happy. However, I missed the fact that there are not many implementation options for those who like to try their projects. That's why MiLENA was created - as a storehouse of textile material for creatives and environmentally conscious enthusiasts. My name is Lenka and this is my idea. However, more than one being is behind its implementation. Makers, creatives and experts met so that it could be created. I hope you will join the story and help keep it alive.
