[SoonIHope]

He makes this crinkly sound when you touch him which drives her crazy.

 

[SoonIHope]

And then I figured....why not take pictures of it on random other things in my apartment!

This is a horse my parents got in China.

 

[SoonIHope]

This is a little plastic meerkat!

 

[SoonIHope]

A frog my cousin gave my fiance for Christmas!

 

[SoonIHope]

A wooden gazelle!

 

[SoonIHope]

[SoonIHope]

Am I seeing this right? Is there a small diamond on the top of each prong? I like, I like

This I like.. and since I love and collect frogs... I am sure you wouldn''t mind, after all, you have that adorable meerkat, so can''t you just send me that? I assume the ring will come along as a set..

Oh, that''s funny! LOL!

Thanks to both of you!!!

And sunkist - TRY ON CUSHIONS!!!! I went into looking at rings with no predisposed knowledge/liking of them and fell in loooove!!! So at least promise me you''ll try them on and see what you think before getting an RB!

 

[vivosogno]

I love this Vera Wang ring and it is pretty much exactly what I want. Around how much would this ring cost?

 

[SweetVioletBlue]

Congrats, your ring is so, so gorgeous!!! I love how unique it is without being over-the-top.

 

[SoonIHope]

Ooh, thank you both of you!!!!

So exciting to see that my thread was revived for more compliments!

I''m not sure exactly what it cost (my fiance refuses to tell me) but I think the setting was in the mid to upper $2,000s...which is about average for good pave work I think.

I adore my setting though, and can''t recommend it enough!!!!

 

[KittenKat]

Me with Albi (Jr)! We told her she''s going to be legitimate now!

You''re sooo cute!! (And your ring is GORGEOUS!!!)

I had to giggle at your above comment - my husband and I got married a couple of weeks ago and that''s EXACTLY what we told our kitties!! Too funny

 

[MissAva]

So Albi...any laser pointer photos yet?

 

[SoonIHope]

Ahhh, I keep forgetting! But I WILL, I''m really excited to see what they look like since yours were so cool!

 

[MissAva]

Ahh! I thought for sure when I saw you had posted to this thread that you had taken some! Oh what a tease!

 

[SoonIHope]

Sorry! I just didn''t notice you had posted that before, so I didn''t want you to think I was ignoring you! I''ll take pictures this weekend I promise!!!!

(Hehe, like I really need an excuse to take more pictures of my ring...

)

 

[gailrmv]

I probably said it before, but I''ll say it again - your ring is one of my all time favorites. If I ever got pave, that is exactly what I would want. WOW. Enjoy!!! Have you started looking at bands yet?

 

[squarediamondlove]

I have to agree that its one of my favorites as well! I may be bias b/c I have almost the same looking setting for my pink tourmaline (about 4 cts) ring -its 3 sided thin pave band with diamond prongs just like yours)

 

[SoonIHope]

Okay, for Mata I now have laser photos!

 

[Julian]

GORGEOUS SETTING!

I love Vera Wang. Her relatively new jewelry line is fabulous.

Another hit!

What''s she going to design next? Cars for women?

Can''t wait! LOL.

 

[SoonIHope]

SO MUCH FUN!!!

 

[SoonIHope]

BUT....then Albi couldn''t resist herself (she loves that laser toy more than anything) and she POUNCED ONTO MY LAP AND KNOCKED THE RING ONTO THE FLOOR AND BATTED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I seriously almost had a heart attack; I couldn''t move or speak I was just pointing and kind of shrieking and luckily my fiance was able to figure out what happened and grab the ring away from her. But OH MAN I was SCARED!!!!!!!!!

To get back into a better mood...I started looking at some random older pictures I took of the ring! So here are a few more!

 

[SoonIHope]

Here''s Albi actually GETTING ALONG with the ring and NOT trying to eat it! Yay!
