Happy birthday to me! WF Sapphires By the Yard

[katiedid]

I just got photos from WF of my gorgeous new sapphires-by-the-yard necklace! It was finished a couple of days early even! I love love love it and cannot wait to get it on my neck. It is white gold, 16" in length, and has .50 ctw of sapphires (7 stones total) that WF sourced for me. I think I''m due to get it on Thursday and I''ll be sure to post neck shots if I can get a good one! I already think I need a matching bracelet...

By the way, you can only see 5 stones in the photos but there really are 7! Tim at WF said the "neck model" is so small, it couldn''t show all 7 stones. I am sooo thrilled with this (and can imagine it''ll be even better in person).

[jcrow]

ooooooh!! fun! i love it. happy b-day! you picked out a fantastic present!

 

[LostSapphire]

*ahem* wasn''t that bit of green lusciousness your birthday present??? How did you manage to scam another one?

It is truly beautiful. I like how it has .50 ctw of sapphires: did you tell WF it was your 50th B-Day?

[katiedid]

ok LS, you''re adding 10 years onto my birthday!

I saw the green lusciousness you''re referring to and remember it was a 50th self-gift. But wrong birthday girl... I''m a young chickadee of almost 40!

AAACK!

mea culpa and please accept my apologies!

Now I have to go over and look up that green lusciousness and make my apologies there too!

LS


ETA: you both are "kates" so at least I know I'm not totally losing my mind!

 

[Catmom]

It''s beautiful!!! Happy Birthday.

 

[katiedid]

oh stop LS! No apology necessary! Thanks to ALL of you for all the nice compliments. I think this is the first time WF has done this necklace with sapphires, but someone correct me if I''m wrong!

 

[katiedid]

SDL, I think you need to get some sapphire bling with your much-deserved pricescope gift!

 

[chiquitapet]

It looks beautiful!!!! Happy Birthday!!

 

[Burk]

Soooo pretty! Happy Birthday!

 

[PearlDahhhling]

It''s soooo pretty! We''re definitely gonna need some neck shots of that beauty! What a great birthday present!

Happy Birthday!!

 

[E B]

Love our necklace Kati, it is gorgeous, can''t wait to see it on your neck. Love the sapphires.

[singingbell]

Wow, what a lovely, lovely necklace! If I didn''t already get myself a birthday gift, I would have immediately "borrowed" your necklace design for a self-gift! (My b-day is six days before yours and Linda''s.)

Have a wonderful birthday! (When you have such a beautiful necklace, how can you not?
