Kathryn R says:Ok, I’ll venture a title for this fave of a pick. How ‘bout “Naturals, Spice, and Everything Nice” ? I really like this spiced-up neutrals pick!

Mary - Sweet Chick says:Often, if I can’t come up with a title, I’ll type something random until it tells me what it wants to be called. Pondering this one, I noticed the design on the Saki toggle. See it? Seemed serendipitous…so I left it.

EPBCornell says:I see “Shining thru a Sky of Ash” or plume of ash or something like that. I think of things fossilized in an ash volcanic eruption, the sun in the sky glowing orange through the hot ash. The Yan burst suggests an eruption to me. Maybe I’m seeing things a bit too dramatically or bleakly, but all the suns are hopeful, that the light can still penetrate the ash. It is an evokative pick and really gets the gears turning. Maybe it is best without a title to let each person make of it what they will.

Maggies Mom says:Mary, your title makes sense. I first thought of “Fossil Finds”. Reminds me of ancient jewelry. Love the orange pop!

Kathryn R says:Mary, now I see your title in the toggle! Glad you stayed with that.

Chicky Red-haired Grammy says:Oh yes! Terrific and sneaky title for this monochromatic pick …
love these colors together so although my stash is full of these colors, we do need a POD, please.

Chicky Red-haired Grammy says:… first we could use a restock of the beautiful missing beads, please.
