Our Story

I'm Kirstie and I'm the founder of Beyond Boundaries. I live in Nottingham with my husband Tom and my three sons. 

In October 2020 I was struggling with mental health as many of us did during the Covid pandemic. I was working in a care home so was on the front line and I'm not going to lie, it was hard! Gosh I loved being a carer but it was hard! We had planned to have a get away in the October to Poland and again because of the pandemic it was cancelled. I needed something to get me out of my rut and something to focus on so we spent our get away money on starting Beyond Boundaries. Crafting and making beautiful things was a real get away from the world for me and I decided to share my makes with the world which I was nervous about but I'm so glad I did. I evolved into mostly designing clothing which I really enjoy. It has since grown and grown to become a large part of my life and I absolutely love it!

My husband has been incredibly supportive of my venture and had no issues with me plunging the money into machinery and stock. He has run back and forth from stockists at a whim and he has spent countless hours packing orders and standing in line at the post office for our little business.
My mental health improved from throwing caution to wind and following my dreams and I will always encourage others to do the same x
