As many of you know, I got my e-ring before I discoverd PScope. Admiring all of the beautiful rings here, I started to dislike my ring. I want bigger, different shape, better cut, etc. My husband and I have always talking about upgrading from a 2ct to a 3 ct or maybe even bigger someday...so I have been drooling over all of these monsterous cushion cut rings here, I love, love bebe's ring and yennie's old ring. After being married 7 years and having kids, we just purchase a much bigger home and a bigger diamond is not in the budget right now.

Just before the holidays, I stopped by my jeweler to have my rings cleaned and the same time, a lady was picking up her new ring. It was a halo princess cut with traps on the side...wow! I really liked it, she let me try it on and I loved it. I couldn't stop thinking about it...so much that I had to have that ring.

It's been 6 weeks and look what I got!

My original princess - 2.01 G color
.30 traps on each side
5 rows pave
platinum
ring size 5 3/4 (since the band is thicker than my e-ring, I had it made 1/2 size bigger sizing beads)

I apologize for the not so great photos, I have a new DSLR camera and I haven't yet learned how to use it for macro photos. And for the handshots, iPhone photos will have to do for now.

Thanks for looking.
