It's been a little over three weeks since the wedding (!), and I still catch myself looking down at the rings and mouthing the word "married." Because I'm weird like that. It's *also* the first time since the wedding since I've had a spare minute, oddly enough ... but since I do, figured I might as well share the joy! First shot: just a little reminder of the e-ring, i.e., an excuse for me to post my first attempt at a flower shot:

Aaaaaaaaand, our traditional Thanksgiving dinner of Chinese takeout arrived just as I was trying to figure out what I'd done wrong in Take 1: Take 2 coming up soon!

It's a running joke with my students that, obviously, technology hates me. Let's try this again: ETA: Well, so much for that: maybe it's just The Cute, and the actual RING pictures will come through .... (the flower shot is working as the current avatar, if that helps)

AHAHAHAHA! VICTORY! Ahem. Pratchett might call that the laugh of a madwoman, but I beg to differ ... here's a slightly clearer shot, sans fire;

Thanks, DB! It's a literal etoile ring ... 7 tiny diamond-centered scattered stars, with numerous others engraved. Here's a shot of the band alone ....

Thanks, guys! Yep, we went the custom route through the family jeweler as we couldn't seem to find the exact things we wanted out there anywhere (and even the family jeweler felt a little leery about going below 3 mm for my band). I think it worked out nicely, though ... any thicker and I'd feel like it overpowered the e-ring. Which is kind of a separate question ... see, I bought my e-ring on a freezing NY February day, after an hour or two in a sweltering store. Those of you who, er, react to surrounding conditions might know where I'm going with this .... My e-ring is a size 6, whereas my left ring finger is generally a size 5.5. On the other hand - if you'll pardon the expression - my right hand, where I generally wear my wedding ring (Russian) is a size 5.75. Now, I can wear both on my right hand when it's sweltering, as in the above pics, or I can wear both on the left hand if I employ the little sizer I made ... but I'm not sure if the sizer makes the set look worse than it does otherwise. If it does, I'll get the e-ring sized down to a 5.75 and wear both on the right hand (with the option of switching to the left if my hands get bigger with childbirth, age, etc.). If not, things will probably stay as they are below ... thoughts?

Oh, drat it - *now* I notice that the picture of the rings with the sizer failed to attach! One of these days I'm bound to get the hang of this .... Ladies, thank you all so much! SDL, I posted a quiet little thread before the wedding, sans hand-shots, at DH's request (he wanted to be the first to see the set together, and *after* the ceremony - bah, tradition). Figured that this might be a case of better late than never ... and I really am delighted about how it worked out! I'd been worried that the gap might be too extreme, or the disparity between the styles jarring. Lyra, thank you - it's a fishtail prong setting (not the most poetic of names). The style is kinda Nouveau, and kinda Deco, and, to my eye, very pretty - not to mention the illusion of greater size to stave off that nasty shrinkage. Now to see if I can make the set-w/sizer work (though maybe I should just do a separate thread for that?) - I'm hoping its only The Cute of the flower shot that's beyond my powers, and not the basic posting ....
