the engagement ring


A couple of people have asked me recently to send them a photo of my engagement ring, so I thought "the camera and the rug" would do it justice.

The linen is nice too, huh? Dave and I picked up the vintage-style tablecloth (among others) at a garage sale filled with pottery, 1960s gems, and a scorned woman who was just dying to get her past hauled out of that garage.

And the ring is somewhat antique, though maybe from the '80s? No matter what era or who's hand it was on before, I wear it now with admiration and love. I could have never dreamed of a more perfect fit: ring size and more importantly, the man.



Here's my ring basking in the sun, similar to what our dog and cat do all day long:

  1. Love the ring!!! Love the story you told me about how 'the ring' came to be perched on my daughter's finger.
