My Scapolite is coming home on Saturday! Woooo!

[LaurenThePartier]

So, I''m practically bursting at the seams, and I apologize in advance that I won''t have pics until the weekend, but I JUST got off the phone with my jeweler, and my Scap setting should be done on Saturday. Yay!!!!!! I''m so excited about this project - I think it''s going to be really cool, and if it actually ends up costing what they quoted me, I''ll be commissioning a similar one for my aqua.

My inspiration for this project was my own ring, with a little Neatfreak (ok a LOT of Neatfreak), some Mochi, and some Coati. I want to thank all of you ladies for posting pics of your gorgeous rings!

OK, since I don''t have pics of the completed ring, here''s a pic of the stone to tide ya''ll over!

Hmmm, I thought my hints were pretty obvious, but I gess not?

Think, Neatfreak''s cushion, Mochi''s Chryso, Coati''s JM, and my e-ring.

Thanks, Freke!!!!

My jeweler ended up not being able to do the miligrain because of how soft scapolites are. I don't blame him - I wouldn't want to try and miligrain around that stone, either!
