I think I'm going to make the center stone bigger

So excited for this ring I'm doing in moissanite and sterling silver with Flora from Provence. Center stone will be a yellow OMC and side stones will be IJ OMC's. I was trying for a certain proportion like a victorian cluster/daisy ring without ending up at 100% finger coverage but I don't think I will be happy long term with a center stone this small now that I'm seeing the CAD. I think I will bump it to 8.5mm center and the finger coverage will just have to be what it is! 😅

BRE for my right hand incoming. I present, Big Green 💚

Working on this project with a new-to-me vendor and cannot wait to get it on my hand! Wanted to show you all now that I've got the CAD approved because I'm so excited!!

This will be a lab emerald with lab diamond side stones in sterling silver.

Would you be interested in a "Vendor of the Month" series on the subreddit?

The idea is to feature one vendor from the vendor list per month. Maybe eventually we would feature new vendors as well.

At the beginning of the month we'd have a main post to announce which vendor will be featured that month, and share any special sales or promotions they want to do during their month or just a showcase of some of their work, or an AMA or interview.

Then they would be allowed to make a few posts of their own on the subreddit throughout the month.

Opinions from you guys? Would you be interested in something like this?

Stay Vigilant, everyone. Another scam attempt today on the BST

https://www.reddit.com/user/bluebladedragon

Today u/bluebladedragon attempted to post the same stolen bracelet post that u/creativegust tried a couple of weeks ago.

When you aren't familiar with a seller be on guard!! These scammers are trying it all lately!!

Do reverse image searches and NEVER use F&F with a stranger!!

New bling! I have missed having an elongated stone in my life, this DJMAX "10ct" OMC is surprisingly nice quality for the price!

My first Aliexpress order in what feels like YEARS. Tried this big OMC from DJMAX who I'd never heard much about but when u/lolalolagirl posted about these I had to try!

The stone is 10x14 which I'm not sure if that's really a 10ct equivalent but it's a really nice size for my hand and preferences. I was worried it would feel giant but I really like it. It's substantial without feeling ridiculous. The middle of the stone does go dark in some lighting but mostly I think this is a really nice cut for a long culet OMC and I'm really enjoying it. It was $100. The metal is sterling and the side stones are cz. Fits true to size (size 5) and they shipped really fast. (I paid for the fast shipping)

My other ring for this order is from Samstin and I will post about it when it comes! It hasn't shipped yet but now I get to enjoy the OMC while I wait!

Unreasonably excited... been on a jewelry "no buy" for what feels like 84 years and I just ordered 2 rings 😅

Personal goals are being met and my next milestone reward is an aliexpress order! YAY!

After much deliberation these 2 are joining my now-very-small collection. A 10x10 cushion and a 10x14 OMC. I can't wait and just had to share with you guys cuz I know you'll understand my excitement for new sparkles!
