Also at Nancy Falzone's party, I picked up one of Kristina Lucas Francis' Okaptopus!

Sugarmaple

Gosh, I love Breyer's clearware! And Sugarmaple, their Fall decorator, is proving to be really popular.
Sugarmaple #1782, Fall 2017 Special Edition Decorator, $60, Back in the Saddle, 10/14/17.

This is a photo I pulled off of Blab; apparently there is a lot of variation in the color. Mine seems amber/orange as its dominant color.
