Here is an example of a set of stacking rings made by OneGarnetGirl. I have lots of gemstone rings made by Maddy and I LOVE them! She does lots of custom work and has many stacking sets listed on her site on Etsy.

I just sent her a cushion tourmaline and she''s going to set it for me. Take a look!

Hi Lori,

I''m so glad you posted this ''cause I''ve perused Maddy''s website and a few other Etsy vendors before and wondered what the quality of their work is. Would you mind sharing some pictures of your rings? Could you also speak a bit about the process involved in getting a ring custom made and the quality of her work. I like a few items on Maddy''s site and I''m contemplating the idea of getting a funky ring made for my "something blue." TIA

Maddy is really easy to work with and she does lots of custom work. She''s very reasonable and will work with you to design your dream pieces.

I have so many things from her....earrings, pendants and tons of rings, mostly stackers....look at the feedback she''s received and you will see many from me!

Still need to get my digital camera, ASAP, and I''ll show you all of the beauties that I have.

Check onegarnetgirl out....she''s amazing! Here is a custom ring she made for me earlier this year.

This is an awesome set....the colors are amazing....it is one of my most recent purchases from Maddy.

She works with gold and silver.....just email her and let her know what you have in mind.

Lori, thanks for posting pictures of your beauties! Wanna know something funny? I've admired all your sets, especially the blue and red stacking sets without knowing they belonged to you

Arjuna, yeah I've noticed that seller too. She's got some pretty merchandise as well. I agree those stackers are yummy!

Thanks for the link to etsy -- so cool! Love both those artists. We need to draw deco''s attention to that site; she loves artsy handcrafted jewelry. And kateszabone has some beautiful rose gold stuff.

Gorgeous stackers, Lori! I just love those.

Any chance you could give us some hand shots, and some idea of the sizes (dimensions) of some of those stones? I have some extra garnets lying around, and this looks like a great way to give them a home.

OMG! I have to have them! *drool* I wear a 5 on my RH but since it is such a thick ring (stacked together) how much should I add to the size?

I just checked out the seller''s site and I want some too! I have a 6 1mm rose gold bands and they really squeeze--they are all the same size--to fit true to size. (and they''re definitely not as cool as these either!) If I get a few of these, I''m going a full size up.

really a full? on one of those other websites you listed that has similar rings it says a half...hmmm...I think I might go a half b/c 7 mm is not that wide for me (my e-ring is 6 mm alone). She says its 10 mm but it has to be wrong since it is a set of 7 and 1 mm a piece. How awesome would the rose bands be stacking my Tessa ring?!?

Lori, what is "Etsy" and how can I find it? Not that I need any more stacking rings (I have a bunch by either Gurhan or Yossi Harari-I forget which-and also some Mini Mania ones by Sheldon Speyer). I just would like to know!


ETA-I just saw that you provided a link to Etsy above. I will use it. Thank you!

Yah, now that I think about it--I think I''d do a half too. A full may be overkill, and I don''t want them sliding all over the place--that is, if I get any--haHA

How awesome would the rose bands be with your Tessa ring?? SO AWESOME!!

If someone comes across a seller of nice pendants/gold/gold-filled necklaces, can you pls post it here?
I am seriously lacking in nice necklaces, and would love something simple to wear for everyday in gold or SS.
thankyou!

Tacori, if you''re around, I bought some!
I found a very helpful lady who had some on sale - her name is : tumbleweedbeadco
She put up a custom listing for me as I wanted 2 gold and 1 silver - she was very nice and helpful, It was only $20.80US for all three

fyi, she suggested going up a half size only. After fiddling with some of my rings, I was going to do 3/4 of a size - but then I realized they are only 1mm each, so I think a half is right.

Here is her pic!

ar, thanks, I am going to go half a size up! I ordered a set last night but have to change my last name in paypal (which is kinda a pain! I need to scan my DL). The seller I bought from...kateszabone has a really pretty gold necklace (two ovals, one textured, one flat) I almost bought. I think it is only $38.

YAY....glad y''all are finding some things on Etsy! I''m not a vendor....just love the site!

I''ve gone up 1/2 to a full size on my stacking rings because I have lupus and my fingers swell. I usually wear 4 rings at a time on my right hand and they fit together really well.

Will post photos as soon as my digital camera arrives.......

Fly Girl,

Onegarnetgirl, Maddy, has all sorts of gemstones and she puts the stackers together. They range in all shapes and sizes. She just made a set for me using a HUGE oval kunzite, small round pink tourmaline and small oval pink topaz.....don''t have a photo yet, but will soon.

Most of my stackers range between 4 and 6 mm. Here is an awesome ring she made, using rose gold and silver, and a much larger stone. I''m going to have her make a custom ring for me, like this, using a Dan Stair peach stone.
