Description from Lynn Eileen Chicky LE: While trying to design a pick for the Olive Fire Agate Challenge, AquaKitty is stunned to realize just how many different shades of black gemstones LB has in stock!!! Much to his surprise, they all look fabulous with the OFA, so he decides to use them all in his first Fresh Pick. :)

Chicky ChaCha says:LOL Lynn—you are so clever! Aquakitty what a great pick you did! Are you sure you didn’t have any help from your bestest buddy Chicky LE??? I would think you might be batting these beads all around with your cute lil paws or using them to decorate your sweet lil fish bowl
On Nov 18, 2009 at 10:42 am #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:No, I did this one all by myself, Chicky ChaCha! Chicky LE wanted to help, but I decided it was time to step up and show y’all that I could do one, too! Since I don’t have my own account here, she graciously allowed me to use hers.
Thanks for your compliment!
Fondly,
AquaKitty

Happy Chick aka Harriet says:AquaKitty, this is lovely. You sure have learned a lot prowling around the LB store rooms and patrolling the perimeters to keep all our favorite beads safe.
I think you are right about how well these shades of black go together.

Little Round Chick says:What a stunning array of blackness, AquaKitty. You must continue to share your Fresh Picks with us.
BTW, when does the trial for Simon and Simone start? And who is on the bench?

Faithful Chick aka Faith says:Really nice way to accent with a burst of color. Could achieve great richness. Oh could we all use that one! LOL

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Thanks, Little Round Chick! I’m not sure when the trial is to start. Have you heard anything from that cute little reporter for the NNN? I heard a rumor that Judge Ito might be sitting on the bench for this one…..
