Sorry, I'm expecting a bunch of things literally TODAY! It's only 10am here and USPS doesn't come until after 4pm so it's gonna be a looooong day.
But I'll wait and keep you company for your 5 stone ring, I can't wait to see it!
Me! I'm expecting upgraded WF ACA studs to arrive either Saturday or Monday. The waiting part is sooo hard. Super excited because it's a big step up from my old pair (around 0.7ctw to 1.6ctw), but a little concerned if I'd be okay with the J color (the previous pair was H/I).
I'd post photos when they're here! Anyway, can't wait for you to get the 5 stone ring from IDJ! I have huggies from IDJ with 20 pointers, and they are so sparkly and definitely held their own against my prior pair of ACA studs. Your ring will be beautiful!
I went a *little* stir crazy last week and bought a second hand 5 stone ring, 2 plain wedding bands from eweddingbands (white gold & rose gold, couldn't decide), and an exchange of FW pearl necklace I bought a few weeks ago are all arriving today. I also bought a vintage opal 5 stone ring too but I'm not sure when that's coming.Yay! Post pics when you get them- what are you getting?

Aside from blings, I'm also expecting a hand fan from etsy, Duplo train set my son has been asking 5 THOUSAND times a day for 3 days, and a replacement blow up pool that died within a week of purchasing.
A big day at our house all around!
LOL, glow in the dark stones. That sounds awesome!Thank you! I know they will be sparkly. Lana says they will choose stones for me that will "glow in the dark." LOL! I'm glad I went with the larger carat size, too. I am hoping for studs from the for Christmas. Trying to decide between 6 prong or double migraine bezel- they will be 1 ctw. I have very small earlobes so can't go bigger.

Your comment about diamonds glowing in the dark got me thinking - I love the way diamonds behave in dimmer lightings like in restaurants etc... They really seem to glow in contrast to the dim surroundings!
Regarding 6 prong or double milgrain bezel for the studs - perhaps one consideration would be whether you'd want to wear them with diamond jackets in the future (those yummy jackets from IDJ that are all over PS!). Prong-set studs may work better with jackets, but I love the vintage touch with the milgrain bezel...
I am not in the Two Week Club, but I'm definitely in the Too Weak Club - as in I'm too weak to resist buying pretty, sparkly things! Unfortunately my wallet is also in the Too Weak Club - too weak to support my habit.
Technically I'm in the one week club.....custom e-ring from DK with BGD stone. Stone made it to DK. Just trying to patiently wait for DK to wrap things up and then get things shipped to me.
I'm supposed to have in hand by 6/29. I'm presenting on 6/30. No pressure.
Between sizing and shipping I'm about 2 weeks out on a RG yvonne raley lily ring.... late night impulse purchase. And I'm hopefully 2 weeks or so out from finalizing CADs with cvb on my e-ring reset.
I've got 5ish weeks til baby #3 (first daughter!) arrives and after taking a spill over a curb last week I have been mostly stuck at home resting. Leaves plenty of time to internet shop and reorganize my jewelry box, dangerous!
