Mother's Ring - update with what I ended up gettin

[vanillacourage]

I posted back on the nest about mother's rings, right before it imploded.

Thought I'd update with what I ended up getting, since others said they were thinking about rings too. DH's aunt works at jewelry store and there was a ring there I liked, that was slim enough to be worn in triplicate. It came with a (teeny, lol) diamond, so I kept one of them like that for DS2's April birthstone, then for the other two the aunt popped out the diamond and put in an emerald (for anniversary in May) and an alexandrite (for DS1's June birthstone). I thought about soldering them but am glad I kept them separate.



Knuckles are weird.

Very pretty! I've though about getting something similar some day.

[pugz]

love them!

I keep thinking about getting a necklace but I really don't like wearing necklaces, plus I think the baby will try to choke me with it, lol.

Love it!

That's awesome! I am not a huge jewelry person but I really like that.

DH bought me a gorgeous necklace with DS' birthstone that I wear all the time. This baby will have the same stone so I'm thinking I may treat myself to a pair of matching earrings.

ETA: Wish I had pretty birth stone options. August's birstone is so blah IMO!

I'm an August birthday and I agree, there is nothing exciting or all that pretty about peridot. Blech.

FYI the ring is made by Pandora and is called the bubble ring. No relation to the bubble necklace.

Yes, the baby will pull on your necklace. DH got me a beautiful locket w/ DS's birthstone (amethyst) and the first day i wore it DS pulled on it and broke the chain I learned my lesson, no necklaces until he's older.

I like it!

[KaraOrNot]

I really like it!

[zeewifeandmama]

ohhh thats nice!

[cherry1111]

I like! I've already got a ring in mind with the Dec birthstone. Since the baby is due Christmas eve I figure it can be my Christmas gift.

Those are beautiful! A modern take on mothers rings!

[satama]

Very pretty! DH got me a necklace when DS1 was born with his birthstone and then a ring with DS2 's birthstone in it for mother's day. I would kind of like one piece that combines them though at some point. But I will wait until we are sure we are done, because the possibility of a third baby is still on the table.

Very pretty!

I'm a Nov baby and I have to say that is the worst birthstone...orange topaz. Blech. So glad DD is Sept.
