I’ve built Crafty Lemon from the ground up.

Based in the heart of the Lehigh Valley, Crafty Lemon was born from a love of beautiful gatherings and creative expression. Today, we travel throughout Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York to bring stylish event design to clients who value detail, personalization, and heart. With a rich cultural heritage rooted in my parents' origins in Cuba and the Dominican Republic, and my birth in Puerto Rico, I bring a unique and diverse perspective to every endeavor I undertake. Having relocated to the United States at the age of 11, I quickly adapted to new environments and embraced every opportunity for growth, blending my multicultural background with an openness to new experiences.

Architecture

Design and decor

From a very early age, I was captivated by architecture, design, and décor. This passion for creating beautiful spaces has always been at the core of my interests, and it naturally evolved into a professional pursuit. The fusion of my cultural influences, personal experiences, and love for design allows me to approach every project with creativity, innovation, and a deep understanding of the importance of environment in shaping meaningful experiences. Whether designing an interior space or curating an event, I infuse each endeavor with the same passion and dedication that has shaped my journey.

Passion

for enhancing environments

Equipped with a degree in Interior Design, I have developed a refined eye for aesthetic detail and a deep understanding of spatial dynamics. My passion for enhancing environments through thoughtful design solutions has been a cornerstone of my professional journey, allowing me to create spaces that are not only visually stunning but also functional and inviting. Hosting, styling and curating spaces has always been a passion of my taken after my parents who both loved to host parties from birthdays, holiday parties, and many other gatherings.

In addition to my design expertise, I have a genuine love for hosting and a knack for orchestrating unforgettable gatherings. This passion for entertaining naturally blends with my design skills, allowing me to seamlessly integrate beautiful, purposeful décor into every event. Whether curating the perfect tablescape or designing an entire event space, I take pride in transforming ordinary occasions into extraordinary experiences.

My work is driven by the belief that design has the power to elevate any gathering, making it a celebration that guests will remember for years to come.
