Thank you! and Sorry it''s not all clean and pretty, I got it out of the mail this morning then ran a bunch of errands before taking these pics.

for anyone interested One Garnet Girl, Maddy is soooo wonderful to work with! She created exactly what I wanted. She even gave me the encouragement needed to open my own Etsy shop (I am a photographer) and she was my first paying customer. She is such a sweetheart! She currently has a color change sapphire, aqua, and a spinel that are just lovely!

Next I am having her make me a round aqua and round peridot for my kids'' birthstones to go with the london blue (both me and my husbands birthstones)

Oooh, it looks great!

Awesome! What a lovely ring. I do adore Maddy as well! Congrats on opening up your own Etsy shop as well. I look forward to seeing other Maddy pieces once they are completed.

[FrekeChild]

Very pretty! I love London Blue topaz!!!

 

[hoofbeats95]

VERY nice! Did you supply the stone or did she provide it?

 

[TravelingGal]

That''s bold and beautiful! We need more pics than that....

 

[laineybugger]

She provided the stone, I didn''t even see it before it was set. Just told her what color I was looking for and waited to see the finished project

lainey, I love it! It''s so pretty! I love the dainty little bezel.

If this is not too terribly rude, how much did she charge for a custom piece like this? Or is it just like her other ones?

 

[laineybugger]

Total this piece was $125, very reasonable I think! I chose to do the band in sterling silver to keep the cost down. I would have loved to do the whole ring in rose gold but that would have put it over $500.
