Thank you so much, everyone, for your sweet and thoughtful comments! I enjoyed writing the story, and it will be nice to have as a reference so that I don''t forget the details about the pieces. Hope you all have a great night! I am going to go try and catch up on all of your beautiful pieces that I have missed over the last couple years. I wonder if I will ever feel caught up!

I just wanted to pop back in to share pictures of my new custom Whiteflash Diamonds by the Yard bracelet. I had another great experience working with Whiteflash, and my consultant, Liza! The specs are .60 tcw (6 10-point ACA diamonds), F-G, VS 1-2, 18K white gold, 6.5 inches long. Here is the creative pic from Whiteflash!
