Love the rings! After my divorce, I took my engagement ring and redesigned it, adding pave diamonds around the main diamond and along the band. I wore it on my right hand ring finger and called it my “emancipation ring.” It symbolized for me how much strength it took to walk away and survive on my own with my young son. I still love it and wear it 20+ years later. My “forever” husband loves my strength and independence. He also loves my emancipation ring too.

Liz, I think you'd like it! Also, you just reminded me about the show you recommended recently. I need to go find that to watch in this TV hole I'm in this weekend. xo

Love the rings! What a great idea. The enamel one looks like a Melissa Kaye to me, perfect on any finger.
