Kelly’s work is amazing…just amazing! I saw her at a bead show and embarrassed myself by standing there drooling over her pieces. My husband finally had to pull me away.

Kelly’s work is really so wonderful. I find her work to be both elegant and playful, which is an unusual balance. She’s a great addition to the world of blogging, generously sharing her mixed-media explorations.

I had long admired Kelly’s work before I saw it IRL at Synergy last year where my reaction was much like Doreen’s….only I didn’t have a husband there to pull me away from my drooling :). Beautiful stuff, her work…pictures don’t do it justice!

I saw Kelly’s works at Bead&Buttons a few years back and kept going back to her booth, drooling all over her works. Not to mention about her pink hair color. She is fun to be around.

Kelly I wasn’t able to leave a comment on your blog? Not sure why.
But anyway, I love your work, it fancinates me. When I grow up I what to do that.
Kelly Russell ,

Kelly, your work really is terrific. I’m a big admirer of folks like you, who are willing to stretch themselves into new places. PMC and pc are a perfect match, for those willing to travel that road. Brava Kelly! Please don’t stop exploring!

the pink pin is fantastic. I’m on my way to check out her other work now..
Kelly, I had been searching every stores and websites for a double sided polyer clay cabochon that was designed by you in Lisa Kan’s book Bead Romantique. The name of the cabochon is a double sided maiden, and its size is 33x50mm. Can you please tell me how I buy this cabochon. Thanks.

Hi Edith,
You can go to my blog and write a note to me telling me what you would like to have made. I do more than the lady in Lisa’s book. I did a blog spot on some in Oct with photos that you can blow up to look at and I still have some left. Hope to talk to you soon, Kelly
