mama's diamonds

for our 5th anniversary, brian got me a ring that was literally custom-handmade using recycled gold and the diamonds from my great grandmother's (and my aunt's) wedding ring!!! it's beautiful!!! the lady who made it is in mountain view, ca, and she sent me this picture of it. it's being mailed to me, but i haven't gotten it yet. i love it SOOOOOOOOOO much! i wanted to do something really unique and special with the diamonds, and this is a PERFECT way to cherish these stones for generations. i'll hand it down to violet. :) the ring is supposed to look sort of like a bird bath and the stones are supposed to be water droplets hitting the dish. isn't it unique and beautiful!? i'm so incredibly excited about it! i'm going to wear it on my right hand. i can't wait to get it!
