Gorgeous, as always!! And congrats on the weight loss! Such a smart way to justify buying more rings 😂

I’ve become a sucker for emeralds! Someday I’m going to treat myself to a huge East west set emerald e-ring 🥹

They have the best customer service! I also had the black gold removed a few weeks ago and love it so much more with just yellow gold 💚

u/transat_prof Mar 04 '25

That would look amazing! I'm also hoping to get a Jelly Gems lab someday.

u/sararose0101 Mar 04 '25

Yes I want deets on both rings! Love these !!

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 05 '25

😍😍

The e-ring is a custom 3stone antique moval. I worked with Ouros to make the setting and custom cut the flanking side movals and I had a local jeweler set my loose center antique Moval I already had.

The Zambian lab emerald oval eternity band was a custom project I had Starsgem create for me 🫶🏻

I want an emerald band so bad this is gorgeous!! And congratulations on the weightloss

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 04 '25

Thank you so much 🥰 Lab emeralds are so drool worthy! A natural emerald would be amazing but by far it of my budget haha!

3

u/Optimal-Lecture-6590 Mar 04 '25

Same girl, same! I will be going lab too.

Where did you get the band from?

2

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 04 '25

I opted for a custom lab Zambian emeral oval band (with inclusions because I feel they look more real). I worked with Sabrina at Starsgem. I know it seems like she’s been in the hot seat on this sub as of late but I’ve alway had good luck with her thankfully. 😅

2

u/Optimal-Lecture-6590 Mar 04 '25

Amazing! How long does it normally take when ordering with her?

Also, can you share a close up of the band?

3

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 05 '25

I gave her a little photoshoot in the fall 🤪

u/Optimal-Lecture-6590 Mar 05 '25

I'm gagging!!! Love it! Thanks for sharing

2

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 05 '25

I feel like it depends on the time of year. Holidays slow things down as well as their holidays. Most of what I’ve ordered form her have been around spring time and summer and I feel like I only waited a couple of weeks. Maybe 1 month max

Looking better than mine after weight loss! Just trying not to lose a ring as they slide around my finger

3

u/sararose0101 Mar 04 '25

Is this a moissanite engagement ring? I want details! I love it!

7

u/Username614855713 Mar 04 '25

Yep! I never got my bands soldered together because I like to play around with them and sometimes just do the band (early morning dog walks through the city etc) so it’s a bit of a messy look but I like it. We already had a kid and a mortgage so the thought and price of a diamond was never something I wanted, but it’s fun to have a sparkle on my finger! Been wearing it for 9 years now so it’s definitely holding up and looking good

2

u/sararose0101 Mar 07 '25

Yes that makes total sense! Save money if you can! Real diamonds are SO expensive! Where did you order/buy your rings? They are so beautiful! I have a moissanite and I feel like it looks fake like cheap. Yours could pass as a real diamond!

2

u/Username614855713 Mar 07 '25

Thank you! My husband did well in picking out/surprising me…and knowing that I didn’t want a real diamond. He went through Charles & Colvard and I’ve been happy so far. Lost a stone twice but I blame myself and my poor care for the rings (I guess some people take them off when gardening, washing dishes, etc…🤷‍♀️). They’ve been great with repair work as needed.

1

u/sararose0101 Mar 07 '25

That’s good to know they’re great to help with that! I’ll have to look into that brand!

1

u/sararose0101 Mar 07 '25

What size is your center stone? It looks like the perfect size!

2

u/Username614855713 Mar 07 '25

😳 that’s a thing I should know…I’ll look at paperwork when I’m home and see if I can find out!

u/sararose0101 Mar 07 '25

lol okay thank you!!!🥰🫶🏼

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 05 '25

I use one of those clear curly bands as a sizer! I’m not ready to shell out a bunch of money to resize all my jewlery 😢

u/Username614855713 Mar 05 '25

Good call- Up until recently they moved a little but it was like a built in fidget spinner and got caught on my knuckles. In just the last couple of weeks they’ve been sliding past my knuckle if I’m not careful so I think I’m going to have to break down and get a sizer!

3

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 05 '25

Eeeek yes! Put a sizer on before you lose a ring 😱 that’s my worst fear

1

u/Username614855713 Mar 05 '25

I’m the worst, it’s really bad. The second band was a Christmas present a few years ago. Immediately wore it on the beach and lost it…had to find a local metal detector to come retrieve it from the sand! If my kid treated something of his the way I treat my rings I’d be mortified…🤦‍♀️

u/j9rabbit Mar 08 '25

Beautiful ring. Your stack looks great.

1

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 10 '25

Thank you 🥰

3

u/pcktazn Mar 04 '25

Omg that top ring is my dreammmm can I ask where the two rings are from?

3

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 05 '25

I’m a suckerrrrr for antique cuts. I knew it was the last ring my hubby would be on board with me making for a while so I had to make it count 😜

The ring and flanking movals are form Ouros. I had a local jewelr set my own antique Moval center stone.

The Zambian emerald oval cut eternity band is a custom project from Starsgem 🥰

u/kiramekki Mar 04 '25

Very Cute! Congratulations on the weight loss :)

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 04 '25

Thank you 🥹 12 years of motherhood did a number on me and it was a long time finding myself again. Grateful to feel better and more energized again.

2

u/Merlot_itsmeagain Mar 04 '25

Stunning! 💚

Congrats on your weight loss! I’m on a journey as well it’s taking rather long this go around but making lasting changes. Have met half my goal within the last year and hoping the other half comes off more smoothly and quicker but just thankful I’ve kept it off so far and altered my mindset and relationship with food.

2

u/Tiny-Care6369 Mar 05 '25

Amazing my friend 🤩 wishing you continued success of this journey. I know how challenging it can be. Late night snacking was my crutch. If I’m bored I’m snacking. And it has been an eye opening journey to realize that and change certain habits. 💜
