I am considering getting a mother's ring...or family ring.
I have 5 children, three of which are triplets. Here is the order and birthstones:
February - amethyst, girl
February -amethyst, girl
February -amethyst, girl
August - peridot, girl
September - sapphire, boy
If I were to create a family ring and add my husband and I, it would include
aquamarine (mine)
sapphire (his)
So, the repetition is why I have not gotten a ring prior to now. I cannot find a way to balance the design with 3 and then 2 different ones. Then, if you add in mine and my husband's I have another two repeats.
I have seriously considered just letting my kids pick their favorite gemstone and not paid any heed to the accepted stones - as long as they didn't duplicate.
I was also considering stackable or something that wasn't a band design....I don't think the shape of a simple band is not flattering on my hand.
