A beautiful lily; bought some flowers while grocery shopping. They always cheer me up.

May I suggest you to pluck out the anthers as soon as any flower blooms? So the petals won’t be stained.

May I suggest you to pluck out the pollen-bearing anthers as soon as each flower blooms? This will avoid its petals or your clothes from being stained.

I love lilies :kiss2:

P.S. Pardon me for the duplicate.Typed 2 lines & got distracted. Somehow couldn’t locate them but to retype.

Yes you're right, I always do it but of course now my mind is gone & i forgot! Thanks for the reminder!
 
I have an eczema condition on my hands and due to the constant washing and use of sanitizer, it has really aggravated lately. So I resorted in using latex gloves most of the time, in order to avoid the repeated use of soap and sanitizer. Nevertheless, I noticed that my engagement ring keeps getting caught on the gloves and puncturing them. I came up with the idea of wearing my engagement ring around my neck, as a pendant, in order to continue enjoying it! Afterwards, I thought that it would be better to also wear my wedding band the same way and have my entire wedding set worn like this!
I attach photos of both styles! I think I might start a new trend here! Already three ladies have stopped me at the super market and at the bakery and made a comment about it!!IMG_20200326_181305.jpgIMG_20200326_181322.jpg
 
I work in healthcare. I haven’t worn my diamond rings for 2 weeks, now.
Constant washing, lotion and gloves prevent it.
This idea is adorable!
Rock those rings! :kiss2:

I love this idea, distract with beauty, remind us all that there are many joys in life no matter the circumstances.
A plant ("fuchsia")I bought last week, covered in hot pink buds, promising to attract hummingbirds...then it blooms this week, and the blooms are purple inside! Yes, please!

We have a dove nesting box on our side patio. The dove babies were born last week, but yesterday flew for the first time, and settled on our fan. The fan twirled slowly in the breeze, giving the babies a carousel ride!

My beagle/dachsund mix, begging for lunch leftovers today.

And thankful for a new stone I'm still discovering, enchanting me with some wild , yet beautiful visuals:

OMG I love everything about that AVC wedding band!!! It's perfect. Can you tell me the carat size of each stone? I think I may need to add a ring like this to my jewelry collection once married!

OMG I LOVE Frenchies so much! They remind me of mini boxers and we grew up with the most wonderful boxer and my family still has boxers. Anyway just wanted to say I am in love with your sweet French bulldog. And that puffy crowned antique 5 stone is TDF AMAZbling. :kiss2:
 
How about a colorful Hawaiian quilt I'm working on to brighten your Saturday morning? I have one more row to go.

@Catmom that is stunning!


New addition from @SinCityFinds. The purple sapphire is new to the setting, and the rose cut halo looks like a component taken from an older piece with a 14K shank added to it. Hard to say what the rose cut halo was in its previous life!
