Designing My Own Ring Was the Way to Go ๐
Hello, lovely community! Today, I want to share my journey of creating my own engagement ringโa process that was as fulfilling as it was exciting. After countless hours of research, sketching ideas, and meeting with jewelers, I finally designed a ring that felt like a true reflection of my personality and style.
Why I Chose to Design My Own Ring
When it came time to get engaged, the idea of a generic, off-the-shelf ring just didnโt resonate with me. I wanted something unique, something that told a story and represented our love. Designing my own ring allowed me to incorporate elements that are special to us, from the choice of gemstones to the setting style.
Finding the Perfect Gemstone
I did a deep dive into the world of gemstones. While diamonds are traditionally popular, I found that sapphires held significant meaning in our relationship. Not only are they beautiful, but they symbolize loyalty and nobilityโperfect for an engagement! After visiting several gem shows and local jewelers, I finally found the ideal deep blue sapphire that just captured my heart.
Selecting the Setting
Deciding on the setting was another adventure. I bounced between stylesโvintage, modern, halo. Ultimately, I chose a classic solitaire with a twist: a unique twist band that adds a contemporary flair to the timeless design. It felt like the right choice, blending elegance with a hint of uniqueness.
The Design Process
Working with a jeweler was a collaborative experience. I brought sketches, and we talked about sizes, shapes, and metals. Thereโs something incredibly special about seeing your idea come to life right before your eyes! The moment I saw the final product, I was both nervous and euphoricโit was everything I had envisionedโฆand more.
