HI:
Sounds stunning! Couldn''t find it on the website tho  With the price increase on rolling rings, this looks like a good deal..... http://www.signedpieces.com/item.cfm?item_id=1759 cheers--Sharon |

The Sa had it in a book. He said it is literally the only on in the US currently, of any size. I have small wrists but my hand is hard to get bangles over, and this size was perfect. It laid so beautifully when my arm was down at my side.
It was truly magnificent. He said I was the first person to try it on!!! |

I am willing! Lisa has been super busy but hopefully we can get it going.
Well, it was gorgeous, and maybe someday, but it is pretty pricey and just is not likely in the cards. However, I thought for what it was the price was not bad, the ring is 25,000 and the bracelet is certainly 4 times the diameter. It was just fun to try it on and know how special a piece it is. They have some stunning stuff in the store, all of it was just amazing. |

I saw those in the window on the right. I tried one on. They were gorgeous, but I would take the trinity collection (pave ring and bangle) , the 5 carat cushion and the 13 carat tennis bracelet instead. HA HA aren't I the choosy one. The bracelet is amazing on, it just shimmers.
My husband told me he IS getting me the pave rolling ring within a few months. Our anniversary is August so that is what I think he is thinking. I love it. I am NOT mentioning the bracelet. I should quit while I am ahead. |

that is November and my bday is in December, 43, not a milestone but...he could absolutely get it for both of those events...BUT I just feel I need to let him decide. I am sure the SA will mention it to him. The bar mitzvah is going to be costly if my oldest''s is an indication and I believe it is and we are building a new home. Certainly if he feels inclined I will not protest, but as he starts paying bills for that stuff I am not sure how inclined he will be! I would be more than thrilled to get the ring now, and have a wait and see approach. He knows me so well, when I said I want the ring now, he said, yeah, so you can start working on the NEXT thing you want. Guilty as charged. But he is very generous generally so I am not too concerned!

Linda, it is going to be just a couple of minutes from my current home, actually closer to Lisa!
We found a 5.5 acre piece of land and it is great. I love my house now, but we are on one acre and our township will not allow a pool or court to be added, and we have only a three car garage. Hubby wants more interior space too, closets, etc. Two of my kids rooms, the younger two, are on the small side. And they share a bath which is getting tougher on my middle son who wants more privacy. So, we have plans almost done and should start construction this summer. It is exciting, but very scary too. It will be a big project. The house is going to be substantial, plus there will be a lot of exterior work needed. We nixed the vacation house idea for now. My oldest two are gone all summer and next summer my youngest might as well. So hubby and I can just go on nice trips when and where we want. Being alone all summer at a beach house is not going to be what I want to do, if I have no kids around. We rent in August and pick the kids up and hang, but even that is getting tough as my oldest is a varsity athlete and has pre season to deal with, so we end up missing at least one week of him. |

Linda, boo!
We are putting in an elevator and we are also putting in a third floor suite with a bedroom and bath suite for my nanny and then a two bedroom two bath apartment with a sitting room (no kitchen, just a frige) so IF the day comes that my mom needs to come, there is room for her and a caregiver. My mother in law can come for a visit but that is it!!!! |

 Can I be your co-mom? The house you''re building sounds like it deserves a place in Architectural Digest! Yummo!

Isabel, of course. Anytime, you are welcome. (noticed I typed fridge without the d!) Thanks so much. I think it will be gorgeous, we want to do a Mediterranean/Tuscan style, modified of course for the east. I want to do limestone and dark wrought iron and mosaic tiles, stained mahogany doors and beamed ceilings in some of the more casual spaces. I have this vision of it, hoping it comes out the way I want! The grounds are really lovely and flat and nicely wide, so the lot has a nice appeal. There will be two gated entries and a lovely courtyard in front. I want really pretty gardens too. Miss Maya will enjoy chasing things all over creation on this property.

Caroline,
Your new house is going to be lovely, we can''t wait to see the pictures, when they start the building. Your MIL, will probably add her 2cents in. When we had our house built, many years ago and we were still speaking to my MIL, you should have heard her comments. OMG, I was ready to kick her out. She didn''t like the tile, the carpets, the pool, etc. I told her, to be glad she wasn''t living here then, of course I received one of her famous dirty looks. Linda |

I hope it gets rolling this summer.
My MIL is just like that. Anything I like she craps on (and I do my research and am willing to spend what it takes to get the best) until someone ELSE says it is top of the line. I would just smile sweetly and say, Good thing YOU are not living here! Here is another random example. I got married at a very well know lovely hotel in L.A. They are famous for their food. I offered a veal chop with truffles and a wine reduction, and then a fish choice for those who did not eat meat. She went on and on about what a disgrace it was that I was serving veal, and how ashamed she was and blah blah yada yada. I mean, she brought this up to me so often I wanted to smack her. I said, have the FISH and drop it. Well, we go on our honeymoon and my MIL and now deceased FIL want to hear about it so we invite them to an Italian restaurant for dinner. ONE GUESS WHAT SHE ORDERS! VEAL PICATTA! I, being snarky, said, Oh, I guess you are OKAY with veal NOW after busting my chops for weeks a month ago! She looks and says, I never did that. AARRGGGHHHH! |
