If you got love for the Bay, I got something for you.

I design and embroider everything for my brand Lemonade51o in Oakland, CA. After I graduated college, I was inspired to make extra money to help pay off my student loans by selling stickers that reflected my love for the Bay in a fun way. My journey to being a full-time artist was not possible without the support of my friends, family and people that love the Bay Area. Since 2018, I’ve embroidered on tote bags and clothes and created stickers and accessories that you can now find in stores around the Bay and online!

Lemonade51o has become a special brand to many because of its range of items that specifically show love to the 510, the area code for the East Bay region of the Bay Area. I have huge love and appreciation for the other regions of the Bay and their impact on culture but there absolutely would be no Jade Lemonade without the 510.

I am so proud to share that all embroidery (except my iron-on patches) for Lemonade51o is done by me in Oakland. It is an honor to work on every piece I sell and make it special for you.

What's Special About Embroidery?

Embroidery is a high-quality, long-lasting, sustainable craft that uses only thread, fabric stabilizer, and fabric. I am proud to make items that are not using plastic or paint that may crack, fade, or peel. 

I love embroidery because I love Mother Nature! 

Compared to screen printing or other garment decoration methods, embroidery uses threads that are carefully and precisely stitched directly onto a garment. This means less materials are required and less is wasted in the overall process. No water, ink, plastic, or heat is required for embroidery which means it is more environmentally friendly!
