We waited around much of the day today for my ring to arrive. It came all the way from Florida, where my best friend Julie grew up. She inherieted a bracelet from her mother which she dis-assembled. The bracelet featured many, many diamonds and she wanted to give a few to me for my wedding ring.
I don't have an engagement ring so I wanted something special for my wedding band. dI looked in shops, on websites and on the hands of most anyone I passed. I found something I liked and Jeffrey B, a jeweler, translated it into something he could make.
It's a combination of a few different things - simple but not basic, pretty, something to wear on its own, maybe a little vintage, sparkly.
I definitely felt nervous - deciding on a ring to wear all the time based off drawing and photos is an act of trust, right? But I love it. And it fits.

beautiful ring for a beautiful lady!
Oh yeah, I got a ring too. Just a classic, understated yellow gold band. Simple, but I love it.
I would also like to note that Amanda has been wearing her wedding ring much more than I think is appropriate before she's actually married.
