Rings Poll

Wow the board is slow today.

Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together?

If you haven't, do you plan to?

Do you always wear your rings? Both of them?

Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else?

Re: Rings Poll

  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together? No

    If you haven't, do you plan to? No

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them? I always wear my wedding band. If I am working out I do not wear my engagement ring.

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else?  My current rings are perfect, I absolutely love them. My actual engagement left something to be desired. I am glad DH procrastinated on purchasing my wedding band and the jewelery store screwed up the first order which arrived 2 days before the wedding.


  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together? Nope

    If you haven't, do you plan to? Nope

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them? Unless Im in the yard or out on my parents farm or Toby's parents ranch, yes. I feel absolutely naked with out them.

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else? I got to pick both of mine out so yes they are perfect and exactly what I wanted :-)

    Fourth Anniversary

    Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together?  Nope. 

    If you haven't, do you plan to?  Nope again.  The jeweler recommended getting the wedding band half a size larger, in case my hands swell for some reason, I'd be able to wear my wedding band alone, but since the e-ring is currently holding it on, it doesn't fall off. 

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them?  I wear them all the time, generally, except I take them off before going to sleep, and back on before leaving the house.  Other than that, I only take them off for yard work, cleaning, messy cooking, etc. 

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else?  Like Jessie, I picked mine out, and it's a set, so it fits together nicely.  I really like it.  Sometimes I wish I'd gotten a larger center stone, but then I realize that's pretty shallow.  People often already think it's larger than it is (.80) because I have very small hands.  But when we go to the movies and ladies arrive in their $$$$ cars with a rock the size of a baby's head, you can get a little jealous.

  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together? No

    If you haven't, do you plan to? No, because this is just a cheap band. We really only got it for the wedding. I already have my bands picked out when this ring is paid off (H financed it).

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them? If I remember to wear them I usually wear both. Sometimes around the house I only wear my band so my diamonds dont get knocked on the walls as I walk around, yes i'm that clumsy!

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else? Besides lust over celebraties rings, no I dont lust over "real peoples" rings. I love my e-ring, it is perfect and I still get complements on it to this day.

  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together? Nada

    If you haven't, do you plan to? No, not my style

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them? I did up until like 2 weeks ago when the pregnancy "swelling" makes it tough. My e-ring still fits but my band is a little tight and I don't want to have to worry about it getting stuck. I do have a bigger diamonique (sp?) ring that my grandmother gave me a while back to wear when my e-ring was being sized that I wear just to have a ring on. I hate when people look at me and my pregnant belly with no ring on. Haha

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else?

    I do love my rings and I don't really get jealous of anyone else's. But I love Verragio rings and their details and hope to maybe get one as an anniversary ring or something, 

     

    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker Married My Best Friend on 9/17/2010

  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together? No

    If you haven't, do you plan to? No

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them? I always wear them both together. I don;t really take them off in less I am cleaning, dishes or cooking that I have to put my hands into.

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else? I picked out my wedding band and my e-ring is everything I wanted solitaire with a vintage settings. I will admit sometimes when I see girls with blingy bling e- rings I might get a little envy because bling is pretty, even though this is not what I wanted.

  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together? No

    If you haven't, do you plan to? No, don't like the look.

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them? When I'm working out and sleeping, I wear only my wedding band.  If I'm doing heavy cleaning, messy cooking, or showering, I generally take both of them off.  The rest of the time, they are both on or I panic! 

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else? Not really.  I picked out the setting myself and the stone is beautiful.  I really love my ring and get lots of compliments on it.  My diamond is round (brilliant cut) and sometimes I wish I had gone for a square shape instead but that's about it.

  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together?  No.

    If you haven't, do you plan to?  No.

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them?  I wore them anytime I left the house when I was working, but almost never around the house.  Occasionally would forget them, and couldn't wear them at the end of the pregnancy (I feel you, tara).  Since I've been off, I'm horrible about remembering them.  Unless I'm putting makeup on (a rare occasion these days) I don't bother with jewelry, including my rings.  The baby tends to ward off wannabe suitors Stick out tongue

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else?  I lust over the rings in the bridal magazines.  Who wouldn't want a 5-carat cushion cut or some such...but otherwise, no, I don't really envy anyone else's ring IRL.  I love the K picked out my e-ring on his own and even though it wasn't a set we found a great band to match.

  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together?  NopeIf you haven't, do you plan to?  Sometimes I think about it, but probably notDo you always wear your rings? Both of them?  As much as I can. Like everyone else, I take them off if there's a chance of damaging them or losing them. But other than that, they are on me like glue. Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else?  I don't really lust over any one else's rings. I think each ring suits the person that wears it. But maybe in the future I can upgrade my wedding band to full eternity band and both to platinum. But outside of that, I love the style. Good post! This makes me get all warm and mushy about my precious!! 
  • Did you get your e-ring and band soldered together? Nope.

    If you haven't, do you plan to? Nope.

    Do you always wear your rings? Both of them? I always wear my wedding ring. It's a tiny bit bigger than my engagement ring and in the summer, my finger swells too much to wear my engagement ring.

    Do you ever get ring envy or lust? Is your ring perfect, or do you sometimes wish you had something else? I LOVE my rings. H sent me pictures of settings and I loved the first one he ever sent me, which was the one he ended up getting. Plus, he knew everything I wanted because I used to work in a jewelry store and he'd hear me talk about diamonds. He remembers everything. But I can't imagine loving a different ring more.
