"My passion is creating unique pieces of jewelry. I eat, sleep, drink, shop and dream of making jewelry.Linda Chandler began making jewelry even as a child and grew up designing and handcrafting one of a kind pieces. She is inspired from designs of nature to basic functional pieces and combines the two into literal works of art. Linda is a master craftsman in many facets of jewelry making. Whether it be silversmithing intricate filigree designs, weaving wire into almost impossible patterns or stone setting, her foremost enjoyment comes from the design to finish of her amazing pieces. Linda has been a vendor on Etsy for well over a year and finds it a welcome change from The traditional Art Show scene that she spent many years taking part in. She feels that Etsy is a wonderful and lucritive avenue in which to share your designs, meet fellow artisans, and share tips and techniques.

Welcome to Paradise!

Everyone has a place they consider to be paradise. Mine is the beach and that is why I chose the handmade sign above as my favorite. Joanne uses Belizian wood for these custom signs. They are so cheerful and colorful. A sign like this would be perfect for anyone's paradise. Her paintings are equally delightful.
