My Lovely Little Anniversary Suprise!

[AmberGretchen]

OK, so I know I''m going a little bit out of order here, since I still haven''t started a thread on my gorgeous new studs, but I wanted to share a few pictures of my one-year anniversary gift from my lovely DH - Whiteflash''s flower cluster pendant, 0.50 cttw ACA melee in white gold. Its absolutely beautiful - I couldn''t capture the sparkle in pictures very well, but its so delicately set it just looks like a beautiful rainbow of sparkles most of the time. Its very simple and goes with everything I''ve worn it with so far just beautifully. I''m very happy with it (and with DH for getting it for me

). Without further ado, here is the first picture, a stock shot from WF:

And here is the picture WF sent to DH when the pendant was ready:

OK, sorry, can''t seem to get the other two pictures to upload - I will try again in a little bit...

Happy Anniversary! What a beautiful pendant! That''s so sweet of your husband to surprise you with a pendant you love! Can we see a neck shot?

[Lynn B]

[Sundial]

What a wonderful anniversary gift - congratulations! I adore that pendant and I hope we get to see it on your neck.

 

[mrssalvo]

Happy anniversary, what a beautiful gift!!

 

[marcy]

Happy Anniversary. Your pendant is gorgeous.

 

[AmberGretchen]

Thanks so much you guys!! It really is lovely

I do have a couple of neckshots, but unfortunately its not letting me upload them. They should be the right size and they are named with long unique names so I can''t figure out what''s going wrong

I''ll keep trying, as I''m not at all sure why the first ones would have worked but these don''t...

I really appreciate all the nice comments though - its such a lovely piece, and I''m really very happy with it

 

[AmberGretchen]

OK, I think I may have gotten it to work - it was a long, convoluted process and I''m not sure why it was necessary, but here is a neck shot (not a very good one, but a shot nonetheless...)

 

[AmberGretchen]

woohoo, OK, it worked. Here''s one more. Please excuse my strange facial expression and severe need of lipstick/chapstick...focus on the necklace!

Happy anniversary! What a great gift, I really love that pendant. It is so wearable.

 

[whenharrymetsally]

Wow! Happy Anniversary!

 

[snlee]

That''s a great size and looks perfect on you! I love it!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Very pretty! Happy first anniversary, too!

 

[AmberGretchen]

Awww...thanks so much you guys! SDL and snlee, you guys totally made me blush

DF - you are absolutely right, its so wearable and I think that''s why I love it so much - I''m still in graduate school and work in a lab most days and I also volunteer training dogs at my local SPCA, so this is great because I can wear it for both those activities without it being a problem

 

[rocks&purses]

Wow, very pretty, AG. Looks great around your neck. Your hubby did a great job choosing an anniversary present. Are you wearing your new studs in that pic too?

 

[AmberGretchen]

Wow - nice catch R&P. I am wearing the new studs in that shot. They barely leave my ears now, in fact

I really will get around to taking some good shots of them and starting a thread of their own to share with everyone. Thanks so much for the nice words about my pendant I really do love it

 

[diamondfan]

that makes it so great. not that the more formal stuff is not wonderful too, but you wear it so little. I have some great daily stuff that I love, and even though I love some of the more dressy stuff, I feel happy with the stuff I am able to put on and enjoy daily! Need to see more stud pics too!

 

[Madam Bijoux]

Happy anniversary, and congratualtions on your beautiful, delicate new pendant.

 

[lumpkin]

What attention to detail -- all the arrows from all the diamonds are alligned in the same pattern! It''s beautiful -- happy anniversary!

 

[poshpepper]

Congrats on the necklace and anniversary!!!! So pretty!

 

[AmberGretchen]

Thanks so much you guys - today is its first day at the lab with me - no one here ever notices anything like that, but it helps me feel extra-special even walking around in my jeans, too-big t-shirt and clunky lab shoes (have to be closed toed and comfy enough to wear all day long = very unattractive shoes...)
