Here''s the ring, I had it custom built, I designed it in Photoshop. Tell me what you guys think...honest opinions only. Sometimes I think it''s too bling bling, but other times, I''m like hey it''s nuts!!! My fiancee loves it, she can''t stop staring at it. I just wanted to get some non-baised opinions! Thanks!!!

Silver,

Very, very nice. And very, bling bling. But what fun is it if it doesn''t sparkle??? Congrats on your engagement. If she can''t stop staring at it then you did good. And it is really sweet that you designed it for her especially since it turned out so well). If my boyfriend even had such a thought I would strangle him!

I love it! (well, are you suprised--look at the avatar--that setting is soooo up my alley!)

My husband picked out my setting too (anniv. upgrade). I think it's gorgeous!

Congrats!!!!!

Wow, that''s beautiful! You did a great job designing it. And there is no such thing as too much bling! Okay, maybe there is...but your ring is perfect!

Bling is good! Too a point, of course, but this is a beautiful ring. Congratulations on your engagement, and on creating a beautiful ring that sounds as if is a huge success!

love it! nice job on designing the ring yourself too... i have been giving my bf as much input as possible even though he is picking the ring himself hehe. congrats!

Very pretty! You did a great job with it!

It''s lovely- you designed a beautiful ring.
Can we get some hand pics here? You know they are mandatory.

 

[silver28]

Woo hoo! Everyone loves it! Good to hear...so I guess it's not too much bling...but then again, I'm on a diamond forum with a bunch of people who love diamonds! I guess there's no such thing as too much bling!

You gals are funny...haha, why the mandatory hand pics!? Didn't see that in the rules!! Here ya are, I guess you wanna see it for scale...hmmm, doesn't look as shiney in the top pics, but it really is clear and sparkly....I should've wiped the diamond before I took pics (a lot lower quality pics too to save bandwidth).
