And if you don''t get it, let me know, I will PUSH TGAL outta the way...cause well, I WANT IT!!!! I wish I were there, I would lick it and claim it as my own!!

Sitting here CRACKING THE HECK UP at the image of DKS PUSHING a PREGNANT and DETERMINED T-Gal out of the way to get to the ring... and LICK it. *SNORTING MERRILY*


I don''t know which one I''d put money on.

What the hell do you mean, you don't know which one you'd put your money on? Hello? It's 2 to 1...she's outnumbered. I can sit on her...

ETA, changed to say "sit ON her" instead of sit her on her...hehehehe...

I''m pregnant. I''m also armed with gas.

Be. Very. Afraid.

 

[door knob solitaire]

Fine. Tear gas...is no laughing matter. You are serious.

And the metal images are just rolling by... now, not only with voices, but with scents too!

 

[mrssalvo]

oh my gosh, i get out of the house for one night and come back to you all just completely cracking me up...dks, t-gal...too funny

i''ll go back and try to hit individual questions in a sec but just wanted to say thank you to all of you for your kind words and overwhelming support to GO FOR IT. no peer pressure or anything

.

I promise to get some more pics today and try to enlarge them for better close-ups. thanks to andrey my first GIANT pic was replaced with one that was easier to see but I''ll see if I can find a happy middle ground.

surfgirl- you are a hoot. i wear a 3.5-4 so yes, baby hands, but they do come in handy when sporting diamonds

alj- so sweet of you to chime in. I know you were a part of the saga way back when and it really means so much to have your support. you probably don''t remember but in a thread where I had moved on past the DK and was on to something else, you asked me again why I wasn''t getting the DK because that was the ring I truly loved. at the time I never expected my journey to bring me back here but you are correct that just taking a little time and having a little patience really can make dreams come true..

cutey, let me know what you find out

although I absolutely ADORE MB so not a bad chose there if you got that route.

isaku- honestly, i think i''m still in shock. i just never expected to open the box and be completely blown away like i was. i mean i''ve been on the hunt for YEARS and have loved so many rings. my hubby was even worried to put down the cash b/c i was so prone to changing my mind. I''ve got documented proff thanks to this forum that the DK was always on the top though. I told him I''d be happy to go through all my old posts and print out every time I said, if we when the lotto, I''d get a DK ring. i''m also 7 months preggo so jumping for joy doesn''t look very flattering

just wait until after the baby is here though and that ring is in my size so i can actually WEAR it

shay- thanks so much for chiming in twice

ellen- you know mrsSmith could NEVER go against her very own tag line now. what would all the folks i''ve guilted into not settling say

thanks snlee, mela lu, kim, rhino, and impatientOne.

FG and Deejay- you both have been so supportive of all my crazy..what to you think of this?? emails. i don''t know what your inboxes will do without me

thanks spark, erica, sundial, lumpkin, lauren, and deelight.

dem- forgot to email you with the heads up, sorry but i''m glad you like it..

mara-you are a hoot. the camera really does make it look bigger than it does in real life, but it definetly isn''t small. i''m hoping this will keep the shrinkage disease off for a looooooong time. i think DS responded but as for sizing, DK will get it back and see if they will size it down, if not, they will remake the setting in my size. my guess is it will have to be remade b/c although it''s not full eternity, it is 3 sided pave. i''ll find out for sure next week i think.

lynn- you crack me up...my fingers aren''t THAT small girl. and you are 1000% right about Bill, he really took care of me on this one...xoxo to Bill P!!!

thanks Gemma, missrocks and flygirl for chiming in.

Gypsy- your post made me grin from ear to ear. you are just too sweet to even think of me when seeing DK. I still can''t believe all this myself.

thanks kay, skippers, diamond dana for jumping in too...

Tgal- we still don''t have a middle name

Will get more pics up today!!! thanks again everyone!

DKS, very seriously, would you be interested in these rings? This would be the ideal way for ANYONE looking for a ring to get a top designer brand at a very attractive price. Bill told us that he has many more items coming, so there''ll probably be some contenders for you. But MrsS is getting the best one...and I am taking it if she changes her mind!!!! (which is EXTREMELY unlikely)!!!

 

[dani13]

OMG, this thread is hysterical!!!

Can I ask, where are the Daniel K pieces coming from?

DKS, he''s got some 2-3 carat rings coming in that would replace the doorknob VERY nicely

 

[mrssalvo]

Dani, it's my understanding that they are stock from a jeweler who is going out of business. oh and thank you for you earlier words of support too...

 

[dani13]

WOW. that's great, MrsS!!! I cant wait to see the new pics....I know you're busy, but can you pretty please post some shots soon before I have to go to my friends wedding shower? lol!!!

eta: I have to say, if I ever traded in my EC for another ring, a cushion with a halo like yours would definitely be it! I just love it!!!

My dear, of *course* I remember that thread........and I vividly remember at the time saying "you know that''s the one you love, why settle for something else? Just keep putting pennies in a jar and work toward what your heart''s desire is."

YAAAYAYAYAYYAYAYAYAY!

I''m just SO SO SO elated for you.

Good things happen to good people, and good things happen to those who have enough patience to let them happen. You met this on both fronts, and it looks like you''ve been justly rewarded!

You DO realize now that this is gonna require a MASSIVE thread in SMTR once you get it sized? AT LEAST 10 pages of pictures, OK? I''ll even come for a photoshoot if need be!

My most heartfelt congratulations to you, sweetie! YAY

 

[rainydaze]

OH MY GOSH, MRSS!!!! I DON''T KNOW HOW ON EARTH I MISSED THIS, BUT MY DH IS TRYING TO GET ME OUT THE DOOR.... wait, i''ll stop yelling. my DH is trying to get me out the door and i have grown ROOTS!! i fell OFF MY CHAIR when i saw this ring .... it is TO DIE FOR on your hand!! oh i am so over the moon for you, this is really a wonderful thing to happen to a wonderful lady! i hope you love it as much as we all do, and that it really does make your dream come true!!!

YAAAAY MRSS!!! YAAAAAY Bill Pearlman!!!!!

oh man, that ring is just

 

[door knob solitaire]

MrsS...you know you are loved

by a country mile by each and everyone of us (some of us are more rock and roll than country but we love you the same...). I hope all of our enthusiasm and pokes at you and others express to you how excited we all are. Our interest is to encourage you and share in your excitement.

I am sure all of us would charge to the door to get into to be the first to the loot...but when we all get there, we will cheerfully, gladly, without reservation step aside to assure you got the cream of the crop. And nothing would please us more than to see you get what your heart desires.

All kidding aside, I apologize for the taking the spotlight from you in this lighthearted fun way...because in all seriousness...we really hope your decision is the right one FOR YOU! Kiss Kiss.

 

[Linda W]

Mrs. S.

Please post more pictures soon, of that beautiful ring of yours. I am NOT through drooling yet.

Linda

 

[mrssalvo]

thanks rainy...

DKS, I enjoy every post you write so please do not apologize for joining in the spotlight, there is plenty of room for everyone..

linda, I will try to get more pics up soon. i did take a couple more just to compare a 1 carat stone of my original wedding set and the DK. I''ll post those and I promise to get some fun shots in different lighting later today and tomorrow.

 

[mrssalvo]

my original wedding holds a 1 carat round. I thought I''d take a couple of pics of it next to the DK ring so you all can see the size difference between the stones. the round is 6.5mm...i don''t have the cert on the cushion yet so i''m not sure the dimentions but you can see it''s a pretty big jump and the halo just adds to the allusion of large ring

 

[mrssalvo]

one more...

 

[Linda W]

Mrs. S. Your ring is droolworthy. I am so in love with your ring. It is huge on your tiny fingers. I bet you stare at if as often as you can.. I know I sure would. It is truly one beautiful ring.

Linda

 

[turtledazzle]

Oh my goodness -- how did I miss this yesterday?!?! MrsS -- it''s truly gorgeous. I''m so happy you waited patiently for what you really wanted!!! Yay!!!

 

[snlee]

Wow, what a difference! Talk about finger coverage! It looks absolutely fabulous on you mrssalvo! Gorgeous! I love it!

I can''t wait to see more pictures!

 

[Maisie]

Its so beautiful. I really hope you keep it.
