Love, love, LOVE how this turned out! And that basket is just charming!
Congratulations on your first ever bespoke ring - you're off to a bangin' start!
Haha. Thanks so much! I feel like after 30 years of marriage and two kids done with college, I deserve to be banging in some bling! Lol. I love the basket too! I never had such a pretty gallery! I can't wait to drive around and admire the profile! Is that cray cray? Well, probably not to you who has driven around in the middle of the night to cool off!
@LisaRN Many thanks, I can hardly wait myself!
@foxinsox Aww, it's amazing to me that anyone here on PS could possibly be envious of my project. I have been so envious of the rings here since I joined! I will def post hand shots over the weekend!
@natasha-cupcake Thank you so much! So excited!
Where ‘dem hand shots!
Hi all! Off and running for the holiday weekend but I couldn't leave with quick and dirty pics of the ring!
First impression when it arrived at 8pm last night was O. M. G. this is large. It's definitely a statement ring for me that I hope I can pull off. I love the color of the blues! They're gorgeous! I really love the low profile! It's so comfy and smooth.
Here ya go! Please forgive my arthritic fingers. They've been acting up all winter this year.
Thank you all for your help!!
@HS4S_2 Thank you!
@rockysalamander Hehe. Thank you! It is growing on me, I must say. Thanks so much!
@lissyflo Thank you so much for your comment. Yes, the blues I was nervous about and they are gorgeous! And I agree, the separation of the center stone and the halo are such that it doesn't appear like such a large center. But it does give quite a bit of coverage.
@meely I appreciate your comment. I hope the family thinks the same. My kids think it's large but I'm getting used to it and what do they know?
@leukolenos Aww, you're sweet! Thank you!
@EC8 Many thanks! Thank you for stopping in!
@cokitty yes the Easter bunny did just fine this Year! Who needs chocolate anyway??
I'm funny in that I associate numbers with events in my life. I guess that's why I teach math
Not including the center stone, this ring has 30 halo/side stones (26 blues, 4 diamond side stones) which is how many years of marriage I am celebrating this year.
And because I went to an orchid exhibit today, here is a picture I took surreptitiously...
ETA Why does it look bigger in real life than pictures?
I think you’ll be used to the size in a few days. It’s not oversized but t has a lot of presence. I think it’s great.
