Our local delivery guys for UPS are not the best so I am sitting in my front room by the front window waiting for them to come.  They usually show up between 9:30 and 10:30 but as late as 11am.  So in order to make sure the guy rings the doorbell or the gal delivers it to our house and not the one across the street I wait... and wait...

I've been on the search for a RHR for a while.  I came really close once to picking something only to realize it wasn't the right ring to symbolize my son or our family.  Then I went to NYC for a few days.

The rest is all Sherylsbuys fault

She had lovely list created of things she wanted to see.  A pretty little pink flower ring was among them.  I put it on and really it must have stayed on my hand for the rest of the afternoon.  I asked my husband what he thought and the reaction from the house was a little lack luster... my heart sank

I got home and showed the photos to my son and he said he loves pretty flowers and I needed a pink flower.  Of course he wanted me to get the "Uber" flower but this was his next favorite.  My husband apologized for his initial response and then we just talked about when to get it.

I decided I couldn't wait

I watch a lot of  "Say Yes to the Dress"  and the ladies are forever telling their clients to try things on they thought they wouldn't like.  I've never been in love with round brilliants (save older cuts) and pink is a color I usually avoid.  This ring has them both. 

Something about it together is just perfection.

So always try them on even if you aren't sure.  You never know what you will love - and sometimes what you thought you would love isn't always your favorite (in my case a three stone ring isn't "me")

Oh my goodness the brown truck is here... be back soon with more photos

                       and please...don't keep us waiting too long! 

The sun is finally coming in through the windows of my house so I will try for good photos right now.  I really couldn't get any before now due to weird shadows.  Old homes don't have good lighting

You know this one is really different for me.  I had her on my hand for so long at DBL that I really did get to know her well.  Only negative was that she didn't fit well so I had to be careful.  Now she's snug and secure feeling - doesn't move much as I went with my real actual size not the 1/4 to 1/2 size up I usually do since the shank isn't very big.

So comfortable still to wear and so sparkly.  I think it is the perfect shade of pink for me.  Obviously pink but a bit more subtle.  At times I swear there is a hint of lavendar as well.  I took my UV pen out to see and I would have guessed stronger fluor than faint so maybe that's why I see some purple?

Anyway my son and I are both thrilled and he tried to get his paws all over it.  I can't wait until he goes to sleep so I can just admire it in peace LOL

We are going to run and get lunch.  He just asked for bagels from our favorite bagel shop so we will... I'll be back soon with photos... sorry to make you all wait.

I feel your pain, Debangel.  I haven't even seen a REAL bagel in three years!  We won't even talk about lox spread.

But Squigs.   A pink?!  Flower???  I can't wait to see her on your hand!  How absolutely wonderful!  So happy for you!

You know what? I'd really like to see a photograph...


Seriously, I got a sneak preview via skype - when the gang was all in the DBL office, Clgwli was wearing this ring and I love how it looks on her.

For those who don't know I had been looking for a "mother's ring" of sorts.  My son loves pink and rose gold was always big on the list for me.  Partially because we call him "copper top" and there is usually copper in rose gold.

He wanted hearts - I'm not huge into them.  Then he said he wanted a flower so I was good with that idea for sure.  Initially when he saw this ring he said to my husband that it wasn't a heart.  So when we got home we looked at hearts and flower rings.  He decided giving a flower to me was what he wanted.  

Since he loves pink sparklies this was a great fit.  We looked through everything and every time he saw pink he loved it.  He said no thanks to the blue (which would be more "fitting" for a boy) so this was the winner.

So here are some photos.  The lighting isn't great but these were the ones I could get w/o shadows everywhere















We can't leave out Sunny either





Finally on my son's finger

oooOOOOoooohhh   Congrats again Squigs   BTW, did you get your nails painted exactly to match on purpose? 

LOL I didn't even notice about the finger nails... they are pretty close.  I'm not really into "bubble gum pink" or "barbie pink" so the softer shades are really great IMO.  It is absolutely the right shade to wear daily for me

My son loves it.  He called it Mickey Pinky.  Why?  Well if you look at the ring you can kind of see "Mickey Mouse Heads" in it.  So in his eyes it is full of "hidden Mickeys"  He's so cute with things like that.

YES!!! This is what we're talking about when we say pink!

What a gorgeous stone, and the ring is stunning. It's quite substantial, while still being delicate, but when you see it next to your yellow, it can hold its own in terms of size and presence.

I absolutely love it, and it was a fantastic choice. Looks wonderful on your hand.

You hit on everything I like about this ring.  Substantial while still being delicate and very feminine.  I was quite shocked comparing the finger coverage when I did in NYC.  Each stands out on their own and won't blend away.

I have to say thank you for talking me into getting it when I did.  I know I would have been very sad had it sold.

I really like that my son loves it... though I think he loves it a little too much.  He keeps asking to wear it

Congrats, Squigs!  It's beautiful on you.
BTW, what brand and color of nail polish is that?  It's a perfect pink.

What a cool ring!  I love that its different and totally unique! 
Workmanship looks fantastic!
