I did get a couch from ZGallerie, and a pair of furry Coach boots, so Heather318, I can completely relate!

I got a lovely moonstone ring from Hubby. It''s in 18K YG with a diamond halo by Temple St Claire. When Diamondfan and I get together we''ll post some pics. Have a feeling moonstones are hard to photograph.. It has a very vivid blue hue. I love it!!!

She is great..., she has some cool necklace designs with caged rock-crystal oval balls..., but she is famous for her Moonstone designs.

She was part owned by T&Co until a year or two ago...

Congrats and enjoy

BTW, I''m using my ''old'' computer! Ellen you crack me up I tell ya!!! I can''t wait to see your finished product, I love aqua''s.

The new computer is going to take some getting use to, especially since I barely got used to this one

.

Here is a side view of my new pretty!

Oh my, it''s just stunning!

He has exceptional taste for someone so young.

And thanks, I can''t wait to see this ring either!

No rocks for me for Christmas this year...DH and I don''t go crazy at Christmas on gifts to each other because we try to spend on others before ourselves, plus this Christmas was a lean one altogether. I lost my job back in June and took a couple months to find another, better, but totally different one that pays about half of what I used to make, and I''m paying for my orthodontic work, so there just wasn''t room for anything of the natural sparkly variety this season. I''m looking forward to Valentine''s Day...my boss gave me a gift card redeemable at any Lettuce Entertain You restaurant, so I''m planning on surprising DH with that for V-Day and maybe by then we''ll have accumulated a little more in our savings account and possibly there will be room for something small and blingy at that point as well.

I was thisclose to purchasing a pair of blue topaz studs from work on Christmas Eve...they were about 8ctw square cuts in these gorgeous YG settings with jumbo backs, on clearance for $150...I just couldn''t justify the purchase, though, since I don''t NEED them. I did try them on, though, and they looked fab. Maybe for New years...I will have to discuss them with DH if they last through next weekend. (I like to play those mind games with myself...you know, "if they''re still there by such-and-such date, they''re meant to be mine!") LOL!

Congrats to everyone who received something sparkly this Christmas! I can''t think of a better tangible gift to receive besides jewelry!

Lol, I''m very proud

. I have a feeling he will make someone very happy in about 20 years!

I do the same thing. Often I forget about what it was I even wanted or change my mind anyway so I find it is better to wait. I have had buyers remorse though (you know, when you wished you bought it but it is no longer available...) and that is a terrible feeling!

My DH surprised me with a stackable matching wedding eternity wedding band!!! It''s the same pave eternity band as my wedding band and matches the pave band on my engagement ring. So, I have my engagement ring in between the two bands - I love the look of stackables!!!

I was so surprised because I thought my DH would give me this ring on our 1st year anniversary - he''s an amazing hubby!!

Kaleigh - I''d LOVE to see your moonstone ring! There are a pair of earrings at a chain B&M that I''ve been thinking of getting. They''re really pale color though, so I would assume they''re not that high of quality, but they''re fun I''d love to see "vivid blue hue."

 

[somethingshiny]

I got an amethyst asscher ring and an US cleaner. (totally surprised about the US!) And I got a new Kathy Van Zeeland bag (my favorite, lots of bling on them)

And, the best gift...DH found an old movie we used to watch when we were dating. It''s a live-action Disney documentary about these little otters. He copied it to DVD and gave it to me for Christmas. Awww!

 

[diamondringlover]

My son got a heart shaped necklace from the school secret santa, it very pretty, other then that, I got nothing, nada, zilch

 

[Mannequin]

I posted on the other thread, too. My sweetheart got a little something sparkly to put in my stocking.

It''s just darling and very sparkly in person.

NYE is going to a blingtastic night for me, now!

Something shiny should arrive tomorrow at noon!
