"Bubbling up in our own good time-- online."
| Margie McNutt |
Biography:
Margie McNutt has always been involved in the arts. When she and her husband Jim met,
she owned a small jewelry store in the Janzten Beach Shopping Center in Portland, Oregon,
which her parents owned at the time. She made all of the jewelry that she sold. Later, while her
children were young, she expressed her creativity through designing and sewing their clothing
and making leather show chaps and costumes for the horse shows they participated in. Margie
began making jewelry again in the 1990s, selling her exclusive pieces through a wholesale
house in Seattle. After several years, she tired of jewelry-making, and began taking classes in
glass art at the Eugene Glass School. For the past several years, Margie has been making
large, functional glass pieces including bathroom sinks, light fixtures, bird-baths and the
normal bowls, platters and vases. She is now making unique bowls and decorative vases and
display pieces and has developed and patented some very exciting processes that make her
work “one of a kind.” Margie has a studio at her home in Lorane where she has taught classes
in the art of glass-making for the Lorane Rural Arts Center. (Winter 2010)
