harriet, harriet, harriet! maybe this is your lucky day. this should be cause for the ban to be broken. you can get one of the three diamond eternity''s you wanted to use as a ring guard until the reset.

maximize your misfortune.

No dice.

Harriet,
My Cartier told me the rolling rings can be sized.

The plain one''s yes, the one with diamonds no. So good thing you have a plain one. I wouldn''t wear the ering until you get it sized.

Kaleigh, does this mean that the Novo bands I''m coveting can''t be resized either?

 

[curiopotter]

Hartiet, see if they can put in temporary sizing beads until you lose all the weight you want to lose, and have them sized at a later time.

 

[kcoursolle]

eeek, Harriet you scared me!!! Thank goodness the manager was able to help.

 

[crown1]

did you try negotiating and it failed or you just know not to?

Thanks! What are sizing beads? I'm not on a diet, so I don't know how much more, if any, weight I'm going to lose!

The former. Any negotiation tactics?

Sorry. I didn''t mean to.

Phew! Glad the ring is safe! What a scare! I hope you can get your rolling ring sized soon so you don''t have anymore scares. Please don''t freak us out again!

Sorry.

 

[iheartscience]

Wow, that''s scary! I''m glad it turned out okay! You can definitely have Cartier size your ring-I called and asked about it. And definitely size your e-ring as soon as possible even if it''s only going to be for a few weeks!

 

[Miranda]

I''m so glad your ring(s) are safe. What an ordeal. That must have been so scary. And in a public restroom of all places! I''ve lost a few pounds lately and my rings are all loose, too. I can''t have my wedding ring sized down any more....I guess it''s time for a new ring!!!

Here you go sweetheart - sizing beads. And a HUGE hug for the fright you had.

 

[Harriet]

Thank you, dearie. Do the beads annoy you? When I met with him, Leon suggested putting some in to stop the spinning.

 

[Maisie]

They took a bit of getting used to. I am happy with them now though. Definitely no spinning.

 

[Harriet]

Do you feel them the whole day?

i''m not kaleigh but pave rings shouldn''t really be sized much if at all. I have heard that some designers will do it maybe a very small amount using a laser. I''d talk to Tiffany''s about sizing thing but any type of eternity bands aren''t considered easily sized.

so glad you got your ring back though...what a scare

Thanks, mrssalvo. I''m hoping the Novos are only partial eternities.
Was it ever a scare! My FMIL had an even worse incident -- the centre stone fell out of her e-ring. Her SIL lost her whole darn e-ring while jet-skiing (don''t ask).

 

[justjulia]

I tried sizing balls and they got on my nerves! Sorry all that happened to you!

No not the whole day. Its when you are carrying something really. But it doesn''t last long and I am really glad I got them. I know some people can''t get away with them but for me they work.

 

[Madam Bijoux]

Glad they were able to rescue your ring. If a regular ring guard can't be put in your engagement ring, maybe they could put a sizing bead or 2 inside the shank. Would the rolling ring fit your middle finger? I always take my rings off and put them in my wallet before I go into the washroom. If nobody can resize your e-ring immediately, what about wrapping some scotch tape around the bottom of the shank?

Are they easy to remove?

Thanks. Unfortunately, the rolling ring won''t fit my other fingers. I''ll follow your advice and just put my rings in my purse.

 

[Maisie]

I believe they are easy enough to take out if you don''t like them. A jeweller would be able to do the job.

Thanks, Maisie. Would you mind helping me with my re-set too? There''s a thread in Rocky Talky.
