Could Die From Anticipation

[jorman]

It is quite possible that I could die from anticipation.
The wax for my engagement ring is being made as we speak and we are supposed to have images in the next 2 days. TORTURE! Sheer torture, I tell you!

I have kept in on the downlow because:
a) I am in sheer shock that IT is actually happening
b) I was afraid I might jinx myself
c) I almost couldn''t believe it was true. PINCH ME!

Here is an image of the diamond.
Specs to follow.
I will post pics of the wax when it is finished!
HALLELUJAH! I am sooooooo EXCITED!

Looks great! What kind of setting are you getting?

 

[jorman]

It is very similar to the Daniel K "Regal" setting, minus the scrolls.
It will be gorgeous!

Wow ! Its so good I''ll have to say it backwards... Wow !

I just might have to rethink my attachment to round brilliants...

Ain''t life great...

OMG Jorman that stone is just amazing. I can''t wait to see the wax, you lucky girl!!!!

 

[jorman]

Aww... THANKS, GIRLS! I am so excited!

This is what the setting will look like, minus the scrolls. Instead of the scrolls, there will be a continuous band with pave. Does that make sense??

 

[princessv]

Gorgeous! I just simply adore asschers and it looks like you picked out a great one! Just look at the IS on that baby hehe!

And join the crowd...I''m pretty sure my setting is done all thats left to do it to set the diamond in the setting and the proposal so I''m dyyyying from anticipation too

 

[Demelza]

Gorgeous stone!!! I hear ya on the anticipation being a real KILLER!! Hang in there!!! It''ll be worth the wait, I''m sure.

 

[icekid]

jorman- enjoy the anticipation while it lasts! it''s a really exciting time

 

[cymbrie]

WOW awesome asscher which vendor did you get it from? Congrats on a beautiful stone can''t wait for the ring pix!

 

[Kaleigh]

I know what you mean Jorman, got to love that setting. Yummy!!!

 

[jorman]

We purchased the diamond from Whiteflash and are having the ring made through them as well. Bob has been SUPER helpful. I highly recommend Whiteflash for their excellent customer service, knowledge and speed.

 

[Kaleigh]

How long is it going to take them to make once you approve the wax??

 

[jorman]

I think Bob said the process would take 2 weeks.
TWO WEEKS! Then I have to wait for the proposal!!!!!
Geesh!

 

[Kaleigh]

2 weeks isn''t long at all and I bet you won''t have to wait long. He will be soooo excited to give it to you and propose.

 

[jorman]

Oh I hope I hope I hope!
I have been waiting 3 years and I just am so ready to be his WIFE!

I will post wax pics as soon asn I get them!

 

[Angel7]

How exciting! Congrats Jorman! I can''t wait to see the wax!
The rock is beautiful and I LOVE that Daniel K setting!!!
Congrats! Stay Strong!

 

[snuga]

Congratulations! I can''t wait to see the wax!

 

[Blue824]

Oooh, that setting and stone are beautiful! I bet your custom will look awesome! Can''t wait til you get more pictures

 

[MissAva]

Congrats! That stone in the setting you have described will be perfect! Two weeks, that is before thanksgiving..no time at all.

 

[anchor31]

Congratulations! That''s so exciting and it''s such a beautiful stone!

 

[appletini]

Jorman! Its going to be gorgeous! I''m right there with you. I guess our diamonds are keeping each other company.

 

[decodelighted]

AIIIGH. I'm excited all over again - for *you* this time!! ((P-scope is gonna wear-me-out!))

The patterns in that stone are to die for! I LOVE it. Can't wait to see the wax. I love the idea of the clean band of platinum (or white gold, whichever) next to the stone and then a whole world of pave, pave, pave below. Delish!


ETA: I hope the "Jorman" and the "Appletini" are signaling to each other across the Whiteflash workroom. Tiny morse code sparkles ... H-U-R-R-Y U-P G-E-T- M-E H-O-M-E!!

 

[jorman]

Appletini- I hope our stones have made friends and are keeping each other company.
I kind of imagine them like little babies in the nursery atthe hospital in their little beds, just waiting for mommy and daddy to take them home.

You better send pics once that ring is completed!

I should have the wax in the next few days. I can''t wait!
So exciting!

Thanks for all the great comments!
Decedelighted- you are too funny!
I am glad to see you finally are engaged and finally can stop looking aimlessly for the box.

You do need to send more pics!
