About the artist Heidi Trottier

Heidi retired in 2021 with her husband Terry from a very busy auto repair business on Cape Cod. After retirement the two were able to spend winters in Naples Florida exploring beaches along the Gulf Coast. Terry’s passion of boating and Heidi’s love of coastal decor they set out to explore the Gulf finding coastal treasurers.

Heidi first made gifts for neighbors and family and then was inspired to start her own business “By Land Oar By Sea”. Each seashell and piece of driftwood is hand picked by walking many beautiful beaches and coastline in Florida as well their home on Cape Cod.

Her handmade, one of a kind items are now sold at local craft fairs, online and at some gift shops on Cape Cod. From coastal to rustic designs you will find a unique piece for your home that no one else will have. Explore her website and online store for variety of decor or visit Heidi at one of her scheduled craft fairs. See her schedule on the HOME page.
