About Me
I was raised with the mindset of perseverance, despite obstacles. This business was began as a way to continue a legacy. Creations by Lena was inspired by the nurturing example of my late mother, Evelina who illustrated, beauty, style and creativity. As a product of my mother’s creation, that same creativity flows through my veins! At Creations by Lena we believes in, freedom of expression and embracing the most authentic version of yourself through unique apparel.
Crafting projects at an early age was a favortie pasttime. Raised in Buffalo, NY in the Fruit Belt community, I received sewing lessons at CAO center on High Street that was a foundational start of this embroidery journey and I've been honing those skills ever since.
Unfortunately, in 2020 my mother suddenly passed away. Prior to her passing, we began planting the seed to form a family business of custom creations centered around our passion. During this difficult transition, crafting became a form of self-care between studies, patient care and grief. My mother's final words to me were “ I’ve always been proud of everything you’ve done, Now tell them what you’re up to now!” Seeking to finish what my mother and I started, Creations by Lena was born!
