ABOUT
HI. THAT'S US. LIV AND SARAH.
We are the team behind beyond tales. And next to it and in front of it. We are beyond tales. And we are beyond. We break new ground for you and always like to go one step further. And we love to think outside the box, big and different - but always without losing our grip on the ground. Sure, that takes a bit of courage. We have that. And fortunately, so do our customers.
So in hashtags that means: #bebrave #beyou #bebeyond
Originally, we each founded our own company. But the universe had its own plans for us.
At a trade fair, it brought us together as stand neighbors and we immediately clicked. A month later, we were holding the keys to our own showroom in our hands.
This was followed by numerous joint projects, many creative hours - sometimes even without wine - and a lot of mutual support in the female founder cosmos.
With beyond tales, what belongs together actually comes together. Sometimes we are still amazed at how well we work as a teamand how we can communicate with each other without actually speaking.
In many ways, however, we are very different and that's a good thing. To complement each other, to grow together and to form a diverse team. Oh yes, speaking of diversity. We both love it!
At events, with design concepts and also in our home city of Hamburg. And also when it comes to opening hours: Our studio in Hoheluft doesn't have fixed hours. So feel free to connect with us or give us a call if you'd like to visit us - we look forward to seeing you!

Liv about Sarah:
Many adjectives come to mind about Sarah: smart, emphatic, approachable, hard-working, optimistic, likeable and, above all, Sarah is simply very, very authentic.
Two days after I met Sarah, she was already sitting on my floor in the hallway showing me her paper treasures because she had parked badly. By then at the latest, it was somehow clear to me that there would be more to it. And today, Sarah is not only the best business partner you could wish for, but also an absolute sweetheart. In addition to the wonderful chaos in her head, Sarah is one of the most structured people I know and is incredibly fast and efficient. I seriously wonder how she does it and I can't tell you how many times I've thought: She is SO rad!
But now a few facts: After training in event management and her studies, she initially ended up in brand consulting and the communications industry. Fortunately, she then realized that she should focus all her energy (and she has an inexhaustible amount of it!) and pursue her own passion project "mypaperlove". You know the rest of the story.
Sarah can read your mind, by the way. She knows what you want. Sometimes even before you realize it. And she'll convince you of it. Because Sarah can talk too.

Sarah about Liv.
1st thought: Impossible to summarize everything I can think of about Liv in a few words!
2nd thought: Impossible for me to put anything at all into a few words!
3rd thought: Come on Sarah, you can do it. Liv in one sentence:
Imagine all the lovable qualities paired together in one person, add to that a clever little head, a casual style and the realization that you shouldn't actually like this person because they're so gorgeous, but that's exactly why you can't help yourself.
That's Liv. In one sentence. But that's not enough.
Liv is emphatic and approachable. She always manages to maintain a balance between a tireless hands-on mentality on the one hand and an immense calmness on the other. She combines creativity, the irrepressible will to always give her best for the cause and her clients, and an overflowing amount of heart and passion!
These are all qualities that have made her shine both in her many years as a project manager in catering and during her studies and as an event & banquet team leader in a hotel. And with these qualities, she has landed herself a great hubby and, after her wedding, a fabulous business idea with "Die guten Tage". And me. Fortunately.

OUR CREW MATES
Carola.
Fixes Crew Mate. Hearty Brainy. Comprehensively beautiful.
YAY! Carola has been one of two fixed crew mates since July 2023. So permanently employed with vacation time and HVV monthly pass and such.
We are so incredibly happy and proud that the universe sent her to us - a super smart and modern personality with a big heart, unbridled passion and enthusiasm as well as the ability to implement creative ideas so fabulously and above all in our style! She is also not afraid to tackle the less glamorous tasks of our everyday work - a hands-super-power-brat through and through!
With her uniquely beautiful personality, she has made her way straight into our hearts and has since been a total asset to our brand cosmos with mypaperlove, Die guten Tage and preppy & bold and, of course, to all our customers and projects.
We are Carola fans!
Aicha.
Fixes Crew Mate. Dance rocket. Pure super power energy.
YAY! Aicha has been on board with us as a fixed crew mate since July 2023.
Here, too, the universe has pushed its magic vibes buttons and sent us this fabulous power woman with a very special energy, a dazzling laugh, a unique ambition and a soft spot for the disco balls we love so dearly. We have rarely met a young personality who is so ambitious and full of drive and at the same time so relaxed and in balance.
Focused, disciplined and passionate in everything she does, plus a very warm heart, a very sunny disposition and a special talent for being enormously strong with apparent ease - with all these qualities, she is also a total enrichment for our brand cosmos with mypaperlove, Die guten Tage and preppy & bold and, of course, for all our customers and projects.
We are Aicha-fans!
Further Crew Mates.
Aka Soul Mates. Aka Partners in Crime. Aka Dream Team.
Another permanent crew mate and favorite rooster of the walk is our fur-good-manager Theo. With lots of cuddles, he calms us down when we need it and puts a smile on our faces every day. And yes, it can sometimes (actually always) happen that there are disappointed faces when Sarah comes into the studio without Theo.
We also work with a pool of great fixed-free crew mates. Each one brings a special talent that we then use where it is needed. Our freelancers bring expertise from different areas, e.g. from the hotel industry, gastronomy and event planning, interior & graphic design, etc..
