Kelli Burns
Kelli owns and operates The Hole Bead Shoppe in Bartlesville, Oklahoma
with her husband and younger sister. The Hole Bead Shoppe is in its
sixth year of operation.
Kelli has been beading for over 10 years now and is published in over 25

Meaning, she is inspired by nature's chaotic, eclectic asymmetry and lets
components dictate her designs, random or natural, whatever may come.
