AW - My rings are (finally) finished!!

FI proposed with a house instead of a ring. I was rockin' a twist-tie for the first several months we were engaged.

We found my wedding band on a trip that resembled the twist-tie. 

He gave me the stone for my e-ring for my birthday in April. 

The whole set just got finished yesterday!!! I'm so excited!!!!!

  • Pretty! I love that you chose a wedding band that looked like your twist-tie. :)

    Thanks!!

    I kind of feel like I should do something with the old twist-tie...but what? You don't frame that sort of thing!

    ...Or do you?

    Ditto PP, frame it with an invitation and maybe some other doodads from the wedding.  We're framing my dried bouquet and DH's dried bout with an invitation, a photo, some lace we used in decor and my Virgin Mary medallion (something blue) that was attached to my bouquet.

  • Cool! And I love the twist tie!
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

    Thanks everyone!

    FI kept talking about how he wanted to find the perfect everything before he'd propose (perfect stone, perfect setting, blah blah blah). I told him that I'd marry him with a twist-tie :-) 

    But now that I have the whole set, I get what he's saying...because its totally badass!

    And I think doing something with the twist-tie and the house is the best idea ever!! Genius.

  • I say DO frame it!  Either with a picture of your house or maybe with your handwritten vows after the ceremony?

    This is off-beat but I've seen this ring a hundred times and wonder if a super special jeweler could do something like this for you?  It's made out of a cast of a real string....in your case, maybe someone could do it out of your twist tie?
