Your new anniversary ring is soooo blingtastic--you set the bar pretty high for 3 stone rings here on PS, @LLJsmom ! :kiss2: Loving the sparkle of your E colored ACA, too!

Wish I could be there to see it IRL...hope we can get together in the near future after this COVID thing settles down with our bling friends! We will all have new sparklies to share with each other! ;)2 :Up_to_something:
Happy early milestone b-day as well! :wavey:

Whoa, three pages and I am just now seeing your post! What an awesome milestone birthday and anniversary gift! :love: I'll have to say, SK did a fabulous job on the setting! I love the shank...everything is fluid and balanced! And I will have to say, I thought you were so wise in your diamond search! You looked at SEVERAL superideal cuts, which gave you the confidence to know when you finally found "the one" for you! Your Whiteflash ACA is amazing, and I know it would give me huge color and size envy if I ever get to see it! It was a perfect size to make a three stone ring! Enjoy your gorgeous new ring!!!

HI:

I love that you used your original ER diamond. Tribute to 25 years of marriage commemorated in such a work of art. Glorious sparkle! Happy BD and Anniversary.

ETA: don't know how anyone takes such professional pictures. But these are.

cheers--Sharon

Thank you @m-2-b . You're my idol you know. When I truly grow up, I will be able to make good bling decisions like you. I so hope that all this craziness will subside and we'll be able to make a pilgrimage to the VCA mothership... (and have lots to share...)

Happy, happy birthday to you!! That’s a boatload of bling!! Wow!!!
Thank you so much @yennyfire ! I hope you are doing well.

Thank you @DiamondLizzy . I agree. It does feel like a miniature work of art that has a home on my finger. I am very grateful. And thank you. I want this to bring years of joy too.

Thank you @diamondseeker2006 . What you said about super ideals turned out to be very true in my situation. It depends on the stone, more than the vendor. And yes, in the end, this SK setting was worth waiting for, through a snow storm that grounded the whole Memphis FedEx hub! I really almost did drive around the neighborhood looking for the FedEx truck but it ended up being held for me. So it turned out a-ok...=)2

Your center stone is a dream for many!! And your setting... Oh my... what a coverage!!!!! I don’t think you’ll have DSS ever!!! :lol-2::lol-2: Congratulations!!! Your persistence does paid off!!!
Thank you @munchee . Yup, going for the shameless across the finger bling... Looking forward to your reveal too!

Happy anniversary!!! I love your new ring and setting. :-o:appl::kiss2:
@Cristallo , thank you so much!

@rcjtraveler Thank you so much. I will do my best. =)2

Thank you for noticing @canuk-gal . I have never worn my original ER diamond in a ring before. This does feel strangely appropriate and makes me happy. And to be honest, this stone is very photogenic and iphones are so great that it's extremely difficult to take a bad picture. Thank you so much. I am so glad they turned out well.

This ring is a knockout! Congratulations on your special birthday and anniversary!
Thank you @AuntKiki . So kind of you.

This is sublime. Absolutely perfect! I love the swooping lines and the presence of all three diamonds. Congratulations! I’ve been following your journey and I’m so glad you have found something that makes your heart sing. It’s nice to see SK’s work here.

Wow wow wow @LLJsmom!!! Love the basket and prong treatment on your settings, and those stones are outrageously pretty. Congrats on the anniversary, plus milestone birthday, and amazing gift to commemorate them both! :kiss2:

Thank you @Natylad . So kind of you. How are you? I hope you are getting through this crazy time ok...

I'm hanging in there @LLJsmom... I'm experiencing terrible side effects from the chemotherapy and I feel physically and emotionally drained.
Last night I was looking at your perfect ring once more and DH saw me crying. "Why on earth are you crying while looking at a ring"? He asked.... And I said: "I'm crying because I feel so vulnerable, weak and defeated right now but when I look at this perfect creation, with its glorious diamonds sparkling, I'm reminded of the fact that there are beautiful things in this world that can live forever and for some reason this gives me hope".
I'm sure that most people out there don't understand that our love and appreciation of diamonds goes way beyond the average person's concept of them and that to us, our diamonds are associated with a much deeper symbolism.
I also think that @missy 's second post on your thread (which i can't for the life of me quote but I'm sure everybody knows which post I'm referring to!) very eloquently describes that our experience with diamonds is an exercise to discovering who we are, what we really want and how we are going to achieve it. I believe that the experience from that "exercise" can be very helpful in other domains of life.
Congratulations again on your perfect beauty. I wish to you from the bottom of my heart that you enjoy her forever in great health @LLJsmom !

@Natylad , you are so kind, and selfless, to think about other people's experiences during a time that is so challenging for yourself. You are right. This whole bling/jewelry hobby is so much more than that, and I have never really looked at it that way before. My enjoyment of diamonds and jewelry has been multiplied by a hundred fold by the people I have met and built relationships with along the way. I've met people who understand and don't judge and have encouraged me to figure out what I want, which has allowed me to love and enjoy things I would have never dared. (love to you @missy) I've been blessed by a lot more than just the bling. But I'm also not complaining about the sparklies. ;)2 You are in my prayers, and I want to send you every positive thought and hope for healing and feeling better every day. Your sharing has blessed me. Do you have an account on Loupetroop? Would you allow me to connect with you to send you something?

Hi @Phoenix , I hope you are doing well. Thank you so much. I actually forgot to mention. I am usually between a size 4.5 and 4.75, but can swell to a 5. So I sized this to a five and am using those plastic ring coils I read about in a thread. I like them so much. Super easy to use, comfortable and not permanent. Hope to see more of you. Take care and stay safe.

Dear @LLJsmom i have an account on Loupetroop but I've never posted a listing and I don't really know how it works! Can people connect with each other there if they haven't created a listing? (I know, I'm such an ignorant!)
