Oo....that band that Gecko posted is lovely.

And I have to say, your e-ring is just to die for.

I love those chunky facets of the old cut.


ETA: hey, my anny is in april too.

Why thank you! I love my OEC too! When is your anniversary? Ours is the 26th.

What about earring jackets? Here is a Bev K with your birthstone already in it. Julian at Pearlman''s is pretty well versed in Bev K (after having to deal with ME! Haha!) He''ll help you out for sure (if Bev K is the route you decide to go).

I love this ring with the aquas!!! Def. my vote!!

Thanks for the sweet compliments on my wedding set. I love it dearly. The stone and WB are my original stone and WB, but the e-ring setting was a re-set.

And, all the kiddos in the av''s is because I called all my friends from the mommy thread over here.

There are some super cute kids on the mommy thread if I do say so myself!

I think DH will go with the band with aquas. I''ll be sure to post tons of pics when I get it!

[Tacori E-ring]

paeony, you are so sweet. Thank you!

Burk, too funny! I think the ring would look awesome in your collection. I love your wedding set too.

Hehehe yep, I spent forever going thru Pearlman''s and saved a few that I really really loved! Aqua is my sons stone, and I''d thought about seeing at some point if they could put citrines in place of the wee diamonds for my daughters stone. Plus, it''s just so dang pretty! Can''t wait to see pictures when you get it!

 

[puffy]

YAY for choosing the one!!! and i have never seen your e-ring, i don''t think. it is GORGEOUS!!
your thread has given me ideas about my anni present, coming up in march. too bad i can''t do a combined birthday as well, which is in april. DH already got me my birthday gift.
i am so excited for you.

 

[msb700]

Burk! came to this a bit late, but love the bands!! can''t wait to see the final product

 

[geckodani]

PSA: Tacori found the band and linked to it. I just posted the pic. LOL.

I have way too much time on my hands.

Burk - YAY! I think it's going to be spectacular!!!

Gecko, thank you for posting the pic. I am lazy and am really, really bad at posting pics!

For some reason links just seem SO much faster.

Burk, I KNOW I remember a PSer getting that ring as a gift for her friend. Maybe you can find it. Can''t remember if she put hand shots in the thread. This was awhile ago.

 

[mochi]

I would love one of these for my anni present, someday...

That would be such a cool ring....and I think citrines and aquas would look so pretty together! When you do that, please post tons of pics!!

 

[Burk]

puffy~Thanks! That's funny that your anni and b-day are also in March and April! You should get a pretty for your anni! What did DH get you for your B-day?

msb~Thanks! I'll be sure to post lots of pics!

Gecko~I'm so glad you posted the pic so that every time I come back to this thread I can drool. I emailed DH the link last night so we'll see how quickly he moves....my birthday is next week.

Tacori~Yea, DH is a piece of work. I'll do a search for that thread. I think I remember what your talking about. I remember thinking the band was great then!

mochi~That is STUNNING!!!

and my wedding set:

Wowzers, that is a fabulous wedding set!!!! I love OEC/OMC, swoon.

I like the bev k.

 

[Burk]

Skippy~Thanks so much! I''m a big fan of the old cuts, too! My earrings are OEC''s too and I plan to get myself an antique cushion some day!



So, I started digging up old posts and a PSer had a Bev K band made as a mother''s ring and was able to pick the gemstones....which has me thinking maybe I should include Dh''s birthstone (October b-day which is opals and tourmalines so I def. go with tourmaline) in addition to the aquas for my birthstone? Thoughts?

 

[Burk]

Here is a link to the thread with the mother''s ring with the gemstones link

I went to look at the ring in the link-wowowowow it''s so pretty!! I love the idea of having a mother''s ring more unique and than the ones you can order at Sears etc (Which is how I got my engagement ring b/c none of the mall stores would do a birthstone ring at a decent price). And I REALLY like the idea of having hubby''s stone along w/yours Burk! It''s a nice sentiment and makes it even more special.

 

[geckodani]

Hmmm. I think it would look cool either way - but I really like it the way it is!!!

P.S. I want to reach into your avatar and pinch T''s ''lil cheeks!!!

 

[Burk]

packrat~Thanks for your post. I plan to stack bands to represent each of my kids. I love the idea of having something to represent them and I think that ring I posted is so cool!

gecko~Thanks! Her cheeks are pretty kissable/pinchable/lovable if I do say so myself!

So you don''t think it''s kind of sill to have an anniversary present with only my birthstones?

Well, you''re the one wearing it, right?

I''m not hugely attached to birthstones in general, LOL, so maybe that''s why. What color tourmaline would you use?

I''m not really into birthstones, either. I love the color of aquas, though. I think I''d probably do pink tourmalines.

LOL. I don''t like pink, so I''m the wrong one to ask on that one.

He he. DH was not so much a fan of pink, either, since it would be the stone that represented him. Men.

 

[iluvcarats]

How exciting! I can''t wait to see it finished.
One idea that came to my mind was a station/by the yard necklace that you could wear all the time and customize the colors.
Maybe tiny colored diamonds.
Just a thought.

 

[sasa]

how about just one stone in pink tourmaline and the rest with aquas? Kind of like a surprise diamond concept but the stone is not hidden?

 

[Tacori E-ring]

I like pink (as evidenced in my Tessa ring) and think it would be sweet...but...I do love how is with the diamonds. What are you leaning towards?

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Burk, your rings are gorgeous..especially that e-ring!!!

And I just wanted to comment that I noticed all the adorable baby avatars on the thread!
