My husband and I live in small town in the beautiful Pacific Northwest where I have my home studio. We live with our two dogs, April and Sophie and my horses Kit and Spirit.

After our children left the nest I looked for something to fill my never ending need to create. I discovered glass and metal and the amazing things that can be created with these two wonderful materials. The cool solid glass rods and how they become liquid when heated with my torch and then solid again when cooled, intrigued me. Turning wire and sheet metal into something beautiful is so satisfying. The design possibilities are endless and only limited by my imagination.

I continue to take classes to learn new techniques and love experimenting. I sell my work on Etsy: www.charouellette.etsy.com
Check back often, because you never know what fun things I might try next.

The lush scenery around Oregon has influenced my work. Earthy, organic and highly textured pieces reflect the great Northwest I dearly love.

I am a Self-Representing Artist Jewelry Designer (SRAJD #0678). When you purchase from an SRAJD member, you are buying directly from, and supporting the artist.

ORBS (Oregon Regional Beaders Society) is a diverse group of glass beadmaking artists that I am a member of. We gather to exchange information, ideas and knowledge, promote education and bask in the fellowship of other glass beadmakers.

I am a member of the Portland Etsy Street Team, as well as Considerations-The Art of Marketing at: ttp://considerations.ning.com/profile/CharOuellette

Thanks for stopping by and check back often to see my new creations. And please, feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Vote for Us for StyleBakery.com's 3rd annual On The Rise awards and you could win a $500 shopping spree!
