I did a search and didn't see this, but I've seen a ton of bling posts on other BMB's so I thought it would be fun to do one! Lets see your rings or any other Christmas bling you want to show off!
My engagement and wedding rings are really the only jewlery I wear on a regular basis, here they are! The engagement ring was DH's great grandma's ring which we estimate was from 1910-1920. I wasn't a huge fan when I first saw it but it grew on me and now, I wouldn't change it for the world. We went with a simple wedding band because nothing we found could even come close to matching the engagement ring and I prefer simpler items as it is.
Mine and DH's rings. I'm laying in bed with the lights off so I can't take a pic right now. I took this pic on our honeymoon in Jackson Hole.
I live 2 hours south of Jackson. I'm glad you visited in the winter - it's so pretty there in the winter! In the summer it's just over crowded with Yellowstone tourists I hope you took a sleigh ride through the elk reserve and hit some of our amazing slopes while you were here!
I LOVE my wedding set! One day I hope to complete it with an anniversary band that matches my wedding band on the other side of my engagement ring as well as a diamond band for both kiddos!
Oh, fun thread! This is my wedding ring and engagement ring set along with DH's from our wedding 4 years ago. The diamond on mine is DH's great grandma's, but in a new setting we picked out. Love the heirloom The butterfly broach was my grandma's and it was pinned to my bouquet in honor of her.
My new bling for Christmas is my new Subaru Outback pictured below in the same color, Tungsten.

I am completely jealous of you. While we were there we fantasized about moving away from the deep, hot south! We stayed at spring creek ranch. We did go on the sleigh ride through the elk refuge! We also went snowmobiling through Yellowstone and dog sledding.. Can't remember where we did that though, it had a weird name. We also went snowshoeing through the Tetons which was scary because the fog that day made it impossible to see more that 3 feet ahead and we got lost for a while. We didn't ski since neither of us have ever done that before and were worried we'd take up all of our short 5 days trying to learn. We want to go back with the kids so badly!

omg how embarrassing - REFUGE not reserve. I've only lived here my entire life.... Sheesh. Pregnancy brain! You probably wouldn't have dreamt about moving here had you been during a cold snap! It's been -18 without the wind chill here the last three days! You are adventurous to snow shoe the Tetons though, especially since I take it you are from much lower elevation!

Haha I didn't even realize your mistake!! We were at the bottom of one of the mountains, and I can't remember which one haha. I do remember complaining of my lungs feeling like they were being squished a lot of the time we were there. We were there feb 24-March 1, the coldest it got was -1 or -2. I've never felt -18!!!
NLewis1 Thank you He picked out the E-ring by himself and we chose the wedding bands together. I really like the mismatched look and once he saw it together he was sold!
I love my set! This is my second wedding band. The first one we had to get cut off because of an allergic reaction that made my hand swell. I went for two years with no wedding band. Then this fall hubby took me out to a jewelry store "just to look." He secretly bought my favorite ring, took me out by a gorgeous board walk and got on one knee and "proposed" all over again!
Here's my wedding set. It's basically the only jewelry I wear. DH picked it all out himself after going to a few stores and looking at wraps and talking about what I liked.
I debated whether or not I was going to play on this thread, but why not. What the heck.
My husband picked out the engagement ring, and the wedding bands are like a ring jacket - the engagement ring can still slide out, yet they feel like they are soldered together when you wear them. It's nice because later in pregnancy when I am more swollen, my engagement ring at least fits because it is sized a little bigger
Don't mind my fat hands. I hate my hands. Or my sweat pants I took a snow day today... Working from home.

I'll play! My engagement ring setting is one I had fallen completely in love with having seen something similar on Pinterest and DH searched everywhere to find something like it the infinity band we picked out together! (edited to say dont mind my week old manicure I'm going to get NYE nails done tomorrow!)
We got married as super poor college students, so my ring is super simple. It's not what I would pick for my personality, but it reminds me of how far we've come in 10+ years, so I love it
Loving this thread!! You girls have some GORGEOUS rings!
I got married last spring, and still super smitten with my ring! I think I will be forever!
I love color but DH picked out the ring on his own.... I couldn't have been more surprised and thrilled! As for my wedding band I loved my engagement ring so much I just wanted an understated super skinny gold band. Perfect for me!
The Mr. chose the setting but I did tell him I wanted a radiant cut and sapphires. Sapphire is his birthstone so that's the meaning behind those. Bottom band was the wedding ring and top band was my first anniversary gift. I can't bring myself to solder them, I like having three separate rings for some reason. Eight years since we got engaged and I still twirl my fingers in the sunlight just to watch it sparkle
H picked it out himself and I added the band with his birthstone color. I'll add band's for the kids as well. I have a similar engagement ring for when my hands swell with pregnancy. Taking this picture made me realize I need to clean my rings. Oops.
Re: BLING!!!!
My husband and I got married in March of this year! This is both of our rings on our honeymoon at Disney!

My wedding ring. I love unique jewelry so I would have to say my husband nailed my personality with it.

My fingers look like knees so do not mind their hideous appearance. Plus they are cold so then tend to wrinkle up more. Lol
