At Moonstruck Design, connection and creativity are at the heart of everything we do. Each piece of jewelry is a story waiting to be told, and often, the stories of the people who wear them inspire us the most. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce our Featured Moonbeam series—starting with the ever-inspiring Lynda Sandoval.
Lynda isn’t just a longtime customer; she’s also a dear friend, collaborator, and creative force who has been part of the Moonstruck family for nearly 13 years.
A Creative Bond Built on Connection
Lynda’s connection to Moonstruck Design began in a beautifully serendipitous way. “We moved and bought Erika’s BFF’s house,” she explains. “I met Erika through Melissa, and Erika and I connect on so many creative and personal levels that we’ve remained tight friends ever since.”
What drew her to Moonstruck? “Other than Erika’s vibe, the craftsmanship,” she says. “I respect artists who truly want to deliver quality because it’s their natural aesthetic. Moonstruck is all that and more.”
Everyday Style, Elevated
When it comes to personal style, Lynda embraces the philosophy of no occasion necessary. “My business does not call for being fancy, and I’m a pretty casual person to start with,” she shares. “But I decided long ago that I’m not saving the fine China for special occasions.”
That means Moonstruck pieces are a part of her everyday life, whether she’s painting, reproducing her artwork onto products, or wearing a cat grooming smock. “I have a small basket of Moonstruck bracelets on my desk, and I dip into it based on my mood,” she adds.
Too Many Favorites to Count
When asked if she has a favorite Moonstruck piece or collection, Lynda laughs, “I own too many pieces to choose favorites. I don’t want my jewelry to be mad at me!” Instead, she rotates through her collection, wearing one piece obsessively until another catches her fancy.
Her approach? Celebrate life every day, and let the jewelry speak to her mood.
Living a Creative Life
As an artist and creative spirit, Lynda draws inspiration from the world around her—and from within. Her favorite mantra, “To live a creative life, you must lose your fear of being wrong,” perfectly encapsulates her approach to both her work and life.
She sees this same dedication to creativity and quality reflected in Moonstruck’s designs: “You can truly feel the love in every piece. When I receive a box from Moonstruck Design, I absolutely know that Erika loves what she sent me as much as I love it. That makes an impact.”
A Moonstruck Namesake
Did you know Lynda has helped name several Moonstruck designs? Naming pieces is just one more way her creative energy has left its mark on Moonstruck. When it comes to finding inspiration, Lynda says, “I find inspiration in possibility. Send me to an art supply store, fabric store, or art gallery, and I’ll walk away filled with enthusiasm and ready to get started.”
A Fun Moonstruck Fact
Lynda’s creative energy even inspired a Moonstruck Design piece once—appropriately named the ‘Lynda Necklace.’ It’s just one of the many ways she’s left her mark on the Moonstruck story!
