Lisette Root resides with her husband in Omak, Washington, in the foothills of the mighty Cascade Mountains. Her days are filled with artwork, home making, and caring for the many formerly homeless animals that she and her husband have rescued over the years. While living in Alaska for many years, she and her family had many exciting adventures mining for gold. Most of the time she home schooled their two daughters, Bonnie and Silver, and they had plenty of time to try new arts and crafts together. They took their animal family of wolves and cats with them on their adventures , which was actually an adventure in itself! Now, her home base is Malott Washington, and there will be lots more adventures to come!


If I wasn't so busy in the house, I could have been busy in the garden! I have never felt it so mild here at the end of november!  I have been very busy working on items for my shops. I have been studying diligently all of the interviews and success tips that etsy has to offer. The suggestions have been invaluable, and motivating too! There are so many truly talented people who sell on etsy. I have 4 showcases lined up on etsy, the first one (melangebylisette) is booked for Nov. 30, on the Wedding Showcase, and then a (lowtek) showcase on the Storque Main Showcase Friday, Dec. 4th. I then have another (melangebylisette) showcase Monday December 7th on the Storque Main Showcase, and finally another (lowTek) showcase on the Storque Main Showcase on the 11th of December. We'll see what happens:) Today is my husband's birthday, and he's getting Shake and Bake oven fried chicken and potatoes, a small salad, and then cherry chip cake with buttercream frosting! He's working out on the gym, and I've started having a little coffee in the afternoon, which helps me perk up for nightfall.  It won't be long though, and we'll be through the tunnel, and headed for the light again! Only a little over three weeks until Winter Solstice. My bunnies are showing me their personalities, they are quite different, both precious! Well, I'm posting a few pictures here tonight, wedding items for melange. Even though I take lots of pictures, it isn't easy to show detail on etsy pictures, some of the full size versions can been seen here on my blogspot. Have a great friday night, goodnight from up the Chiliwist, Lisette

A Little About Me

Welcome to MelangeByLisette, I hope you find something interesting within... I love all forms of Art, and I have a great desire to try my hand at whatever captures my interest. I do not believe in mediocrity, or carelessness. When I create something myself, or when I am drawn to other artists works, I want to see a small piece of that persons soul in their work. I want to be able to feel and see the time of creation it took to bring forth a piece of art (any kind of art). After all, to me, this is what brings meaning to my life. The time it took to create a thing is non refundable, but extremely valuable. To love and to be loved, and to share that love with others, with art, for instance, is why I want to wake each morning. I truly love our planet Earth, and when I use her resources, it matters how I do so. I will always strive to do no harm. I am of course drawn to others who share this philosophy, and I seek them out if possible. In this last year, I needed to learn to use a computer to share my artwork. I don't drive, and I am a bit of a happy hermit, and I knew nothing whatsoever about computers and I would have been lost without the loving and extremely patient help from my sister Laura, who helped me every step of the way, thank you sister! I honestly did not believe I could do it, but here I am! My store is located on ETSY, and it is simply amazing, and I feel comfortable and happy there, and I feel privileged to be a very small part of it. I try to reuse, repurpose, and recycle whenever I can. I am always experimenting to that end. I am happy to share ideas whenever possible, and am open to creating special request items. What an amazing thing to be in touch with so many artists, tradesmen, and the whole wide world! Wow! I hope you enjoy my blog and my shop, which will have new works as often as possible. Sincerely, Lisette
