Well, Valentines day came early! ![]() My husband designed some huggies for me. What do you think? I think I love them!! ![]() Diamonds are branded HeartStar diamonds and I saw the arrows through the hearts and arrows viewer the jeweler let me use. Without further ado, here are some pictures. The three diamond sizes on each earring are .10, .20 and, .50 points. F and G color, VS1 and VS2's Now for some pictures...

SuzyQZ, those are some really neat huggies. Your hubby did good. I like the semi-bezel setting.

Date: 1/27/2007 9:45:21 PM Thank you Gothgrrl. He likes to dabble in jewelry design. He's had a hand in my wedding ring, RHR and now these huggies. These were a complete surprise. I had no idea he was doing this, he said he started before Thanksgiving. I wish I had known because I would have taken pictures of the waxes, but too late now. But hey, I'm happy with the new earrings don't ya knowAuthor: Gothgrrl SuzyQZ, those are some really neat huggies. Your hubby did good. I like the semi-bezel setting.

HI: SQ, great earrings! BTW, I got the same "error" message the other day when trying to load pics of my new diamond studs; I ended up renaming some of the files and that seemed to work. cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off". |

Date: 1/27/2007 10:07:34 PM Thanks canuk-gal, I appreciate the tip and the complement. Author: canuk-gal HI: SQ, great earrings!

As soon as we pulled into the jewelers parking lot my heart was skipping a beat because I knew something was up. I'm like Pavlov's dog, if I even get close to our jewelers shop (or any jewelry store for that matter) I start to drool!

Date: 1/27/2007 10:15:27 PM Shay, thanks for the kudos. My husband really enjoyed this project. I don't know how original one can be with this type of earring. I am sure there are similar styles out there. What means the most to me is that he didn't want to buy "off the shelf" so even though it may not be so unique, it is his concept and he had a definite hand in its production and coming to be.Author: Shay37 Suzy, I love them. They are really unusual. Thank you for the pics. shay He's a real gem of a husband!

Date: 1/27/2007 10:45:25 PM Thank you. He DID do good. I've never discussed hearts and arrows with him but he told the jeweler that he wanted the most sparklie diamonds she could find, and he wanted the best cut Author: mrssalvo those are gorgeous, he did good.. . She recommended these HeartStar, brought them in loose for him to look at under the H&A viewer and he said "yup, that's the ticket!". I don't know how he kept this a secret from Thanksgiving until now. What a poker face he has!

Author: kcoursolle Absolutely stunning, he did an amazing job!!! They must be gorgeous from across the room, I really love the settings! I told my husband that it is cruel that I can't see my earrings when I'm out and about. We went out to dinner tonight and I'm asking him every 10 minutes "how do they look?" "Do they sparkle a lot?" He just smiles and says "yes, they look terrific", but I can't see them!!! How cruel is that! I can't walk around holding up a mirror all day LOL!

Date: 1/28/2007 12:20:49 AM Yup, I hear ya! I've always made rings, bracelets, watches a priority when making jewelry purchases. I've only worn plain gold hoops in my ears for years. It never really bothered me because I can't see my own earrings when I wearing them. Well apparently, it really bugged hubby that my "head" didn't have any bling on it. He says he can see me and he wanted some sparkle to complement my rings. So what's a girl to do? I'll just have to suffer my fate Author: kcoursolle Date: 1/28/2007 12:06:54 AM Author: SuzyQZ Date: 1/27/2007 11:57:19 PM Oh Kcoursolle, I just love your rings so much and it really means a lot to me that you like my earrings too!

I've never heard of HeartStar diamonds before. They are beautiful, but apparently not widely carried. When the jeweler/hubby said the diamonds in my earrings were this name brand, I was curious. http://www.heartstardiamonds.com/ Anyone here heard/purchased? They advertise a HeartStar2 princess cut too. My diamonds are lovely, no complaints here. Just wondering.

He added a master bedroom and bath to our last home, did 90% of the work himself, and has sketches all around the house with his ideas for a remodel for our present home.

Oh Suzy your new earrings are absolutely exquisite and they look so pretty on your ear!!! Your husband is truly a treasure and that was such a sweet thing for him to do. I love the semi-bezel design. It defines the diamonds nicely and gives a unique overall look. I need a pair of those beauties to go with my semi-bezel three stone ring! I have never heard of HeartStar diamonds either, but they look amazing!!!

Date: 1/28/2007 10:28:01 AM Hello Sundial, my friend! I was hoping you would post on my threadAuthor: Sundial Oh Suzy your new earrings are absolutely exquisite and they look so pretty on your ear!!! Your husband is truly a treasure and that was such a sweet thing for him to do. I love the semi-bezel design. It defines the diamonds nicely and gives a unique overall look. I need a pair of those beauties to go with my semi-bezel three stone ring! I have never heard of HeartStar diamonds either, but they look amazing!!!![]() I actually thought of you when I first saw them, I said to myself "I bet Sundial would like these!" LOL They would complement your semi-bezel ring beautifully! The earrings were fairly priced (I thought). For the wax, custom work, gold and diamond content (1.60TCW) they were in the $3K+ range, so I was surprised when I was told the diamonds were a brand name. I was expecting non-branded diamonds. Earrings are much more forgiving because the stones are smaller and no one really is in your face looking at your diamonds up close. You are right that they do look amazing, can't wait for a sunny day
