Tailored To Meaningful Gifting: The Story Behind Beyond Quaint & Beyond Natural

Tailored To Meaningful Gifting: The Story Behind Beyond Quaint & Beyond Natural

When I was around five years old, a special package arrived from Puerto Rico. Inside were bath towels—one for each member of our family—personally embroidered by my abuelita. Mine had my name on it, stitched with love from across the sea. I used that towel until the image was frayed and faded.

I don’t remember the color, but I’ll never forget the feeling:
I was loved. I was seen.  I felt special!

That one towel sparked a lifelong passion for thoughtful, meaningful gifts—and ultimately, it helped inspire Beyond Quaint.

Where Joy Meets Creativity

Gifting has always been more about the giving than the getting.
Christmas is my favorite time of year—not for the presents under the tree, but for the joy in the air. Every year, my mom and I swore we wouldn’t buy new ornaments… and every year, we caved.

In 2020, during the quiet of the pandemic, I borrowed my niece’s Silhouette Cameo and started making my own holiday ornaments. I experimented with epoxy resin and fell in love with the creation process. When a friend’s niece and nephew told me I should sell my items, the spark became a flame—and Beyond Quaint was born.

More Than Just a Pretty Package

At Beyond Quaint, I create gifts that speak—sometimes literally—with custom messages, names, or themes. I’ve been told many times that my gift baskets are amazing, not just because they’re beautiful, but because they feel personal.

From glittery tumblers to hand-poured resin dominoes, each item is a celebration of love, joy, and intentional giving.

Caring for Our Skin, Naturally

In 2019, I began a deeper wellness journey. I’d heard so much about eating clean—but what about what we put on our bodies?

After months of research and testing, I began the journey towards launching Beyond Natural, offering handmade bath and skincare products that are clean, nourishing, and free from harmful ingredients. Every formula is rooted in self-care, skin health, and love.

Whether you’re opening a tumbler from Beyond Quaint or using a bar of soap from Beyond Natural, I want you to feel two things:
