What are your bad jewelry habits?

[Mreader]

Yep. Me too, no dang patience here. Which has been a costly lesson in indeed...reset after reset til I finally get it right. The struggle is REAL.

Speaking of which, I want to see the “before” of your 5 stone. I love love the new look! But don’t know what it looked like before.

Okay...so this is the officially 1st 5 Stone with my favorite center...it has been a halo, 3- three stone rings , a 7 stone, and now a five stone. But it's my 3rd official 5 stone ring.

From 2010 til present...

I love the final result.

Yes for now I’m also keeping the RG. The center stone is much larger and it’s a cushion shape, so different enough. I just love how comfy they are to wear. Maybe in the future I’ll get one with white metal haha.

Well, as I think you know, I have one in yellow and one in white and am collecting the stones to make one in rose. I agree, they are super comfy. Really some of my favorite rings.

I wear all my jewelry to bed.

Me too. I always have. Even my watch.

The end version is splendid! I like the other ones too.

Yes, I know that you have yellow and white and I didn’t know you were collecting for a rose one! Lovely!

My bad habit is being a bargain hunter at heart and purchasing things lower down on the wishlist because they are at a good price on pre-loved sites.

I’ve been wanting a pair of VCA sweet Alhambra earrings for years but couldn’t stomach paying full price for them. Five years later and they’re about 20% more expensive, and I would’ve gotten five years of wear from them!

I totally feel this! There is a piece that I really love and I just don’t want to pay what they are asking and that’s also part of my process. If I bought it, I wouldn’t enjoy it so much because it’s not a good deal. But it sounds like you still love these five years later, so you may want to consider it!

Haha indeed, as I don't want to wait another five years and haven't found the perfect bargain pair of daily earrings yet!

Wait, I have another one. Buying eternity bands that are almost the right size and only fit in the best and coldest of times. I justify said purchase by saying that it is so hard to find eternity bands in larger sizes, so to get one that is so close to the size I need is good enough.

Please tell me I’m not the only one stuck in this cycle of madness!
