THE HEART BEHIND HEARTH

Meet Crystal

FOUNDER & LEAD DESIGNER

My love for the holidays started long before Hearth Holiday Design. Some of my earliest memories are making popcorn garlands and decorating the tree with ornaments from my grandparents’ market. As I got older, that love for decorating continued in my own home and eventually grew into helping family and friends create beautiful spaces for the holidays.

The name Hearth was inspired by the heart of my own home. Our fireplace has always been a place where my family gathers, especially during the holidays. To me, it represents warmth, tradition and the feeling of being home, everything I want Hearth Holiday Design to bring into the homes I decorate.

Today, I have the privilege of providing holiday decorating and Christmas styling throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. From custom Christmas trees and garlands to full-home holiday installations, every design is thoughtfully created for the space and the people who enjoy it.

MY DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

I’ve always been drawn to a classic, timeless approach to holiday decorating. I love designs that feel warm, layered and natural rather than overly matched or trendy.

I take inspiration from each home, its architecture, interiors and the way the family lives in the space. I thoughtfully layer greenery, ribbon, ornaments and organic elements to create a finished look that feels full and elevated without feeling overdone.

Most importantly, I want each home to still feel personal. The goal is never to make every home look the same, but to create something beautiful for the season that feels like it truly belongs there.
