Pictures of my Blue/Gray Spinel and Diamond Custom Necklace project!

Beautiful pendant. I''m glad you finally got it how you had envisioned it!

Mata,

Your pendant has seriously inspired me. I was looking for ideas for a bday gift for my FMIL and your pendant is what ultimately convinced me to go this route. Although I''m currently considering a different shape (a pear perhaps) whenever I lose track of my "vision" I come back to your thread and look at this very piece - it reminds me really quickly of the "feeling" and "look" I''m hoping to achieve.

Thank you for sharing.

M

Where did you end up buying the spinel, online? It looks very nice and even looks pretty well cut too, which is unusual....

I have a Cannon Power Shot SD 550 Digital Elph, before this I had a SD 400, which I loved but suffered an accident a few weeks ago.

Wow!

 

[aphisiglovessae]

[anchor31]

It''s gorgeous!! I love it!

 

[mrssalvo]

It''s looks gorgeous on you. It''s a beautiful pendant.

 

[FD21Bride]

So...that would make a wonderful "something blue" for your wedding....any chance I can borrow it for mine?

Figured it was worth a try!

 

[Sundial]

Oh Matatora your pendant turned out beautifully!!! I love the way it looks on your neck, so very pretty.

 

[Dancing Fire]

Mat
beautiful pendant/necklace!!!

 

[butterfly 17]

Absolutely love your new necklace. I love the delicateness of the chain and the substantialness of the pendant.
It looks great on you!

 

[sarita]

I''ve said it before, I''m not alone... it''s one of the most beautiful necklaces I have ever seen. Truly. I want one!

 

[MissAva]

Oh thanks everyone for all the wonderful compliments, I really enjoy being able to share my passion for shiny objects with others!
Now as far as the necklace goes, I mentioned this on a thread in the BridesWorldWide forum, if anyone really did want to wear it in their wedding I would be happy to let that be their “something borrowed”.

 

[aphisiglovessae]

ME ME ME!!!

Are you nuts??!! I wouldn''t think you would actually let me borrow that. You don''t even know me!

I''d be careful of that. Nice offer, yes. But may not be a wise move on your part.

 

[MissAva]

Kaleigh- there are a few stipulations on the offer.
-It has to be a long time poster, the first post cannot be a request to borrow the necklace.
- I would not mail it to a P.O. Box or a work place, home address only.
-For the return to me I would expect a tracking number/insurance to be paid for by whomever borrowed it.

The reason I am willing to do this is Pricescope has been a wonderful haven for me. I have learned so much from those who take the time to post here. I have contact with a few of the Pricescopers and they have all been very lovely people. Also I think it would be unlikely that someone would just stumble across the offer, though that might happen. I am still working on how people could contact me outside of AIM, since posting personal information is a bad idea.

APhiG- The offer is open, if you would like to borrow it you are most certainly welcome to.

 

[Stephan]

Matatora, you are a class act.

 

[lizz]

You are a generous girl, too bad I''m already married. I have also admired your necklace since you first posted it. I would like to get one made eventually to simulate it.

 

[diamondlil]

It is beautiful, Mat. I''m so glad it all worked out. Congratulations on your awesome pendant and your graduation!!!!
