It''s DONE!!!!!! Thank you all so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ff]

It''s finally all done!! And you have all helped so much!!! I will definitely put a full set of photos later that will do it more justice but just got it home and had to share with all of you! Wink was a huge help in finding the perfect sapphires at the end and my local jeweler did an amazing job of putting it all together. Full story to come.

Here''s a quick photo that really doesn''t do it any justice. It''s nightime here so not great indoor lighting. GF is about to get home so will have to wait till she''s at work tomorrow to take some good photos.

Again, THANK YOU so much everyone. I can''t believe that after all the insanity, it''s all done!!!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Went out to dinner with my GF and came back to find all of your amazing responses!!!! WOW!!!

You are all incredible.

It''s so hard to keep all of this a secret so having all of you to share it with helps tons!!!

I am sure many of you know exactly how much I''m dyinggggggggggggggg to show it to her NOW!!!

I will definitely post tomorrow more photos with different angles and light conditions. I can''t wait to see it myself in the sun!! By the time we finished getting it all set at the jewlers, the sun had gone behind clouds and never came back out so I haven''t yet seen it myself in full daylight! You all know the first thing I''ll be doing when she leaves for work in the morning.

I''ve seen the stones seperately but can''t wait to see the full effect.

And I''ll definitely post a full writeup of how it all came about. As some of you know from other threads, I really wanted this ring to be perfect so went through a lot of learning and a lot of saving from all of you at PS.

I even managed to get Garry to want to run me over with his truck!

He was super helpful though like all of you and I can not begin to say how much I appreciate all of your help and am so happy that I found PS at the start of this adventure. There were a few twists along the way that should make for interesting and hopefully helpful insights for others who like me, came here not knowing much at first.

I dread to think of what I would have ended up with without all of you!!!

THANK YOU!!!!!

 

[Phoenix]

Now about that ring.... It's fan-ta-bu-lous!!!! Just gorgeous in everyway. Your girlfriend will be crazy with joy when you ask her and she sees her ring!! You did and outstanding job from the selection of your diamond and side stones to that beautiful setting. You should be proud, you done good kiddo!!!
