Some dare to think out of the tradition and ask the right questions – why so many Americans become obsessed with lavish weddings, if engagement rings are so special why should only a woman get one and why get obsessed with eternity rings, anniversary rings and all that the diamond company wants us to buy. Some reasoning here – until the 1930′s, a woman forsaken by her fiancé could sue for financial compensation for “damage” to her reputation under the “Breach of Promise to Marry” act. As courts and the law system matured and began to abolish such acts, diamond rings came in rescue for the poor woman who still looked for some financial commitment from the groom

I’ve been slammed with orders and custom requests lately and have not had much time whatsoever to create many new pieces…believe me, I’m not complaining! LOL, but, I do know there are several of you that have been asking when I’m going to get more new stuff up. *grin* And I have a ton of pieces rolling around in my head just waiting for me to sit down and CREATE!! I just received some new toys…uh, I mean new tools, LOL, and I was able to take a little time to create a couple of wide band rings that I’ve been dying to get to!! Birch Wide Ring Fern Wide Ring The Birch Ring many of you are already familiar with, as I offer the slimmer Birch Stacking Rings for sale, but, I really wanted to make a wider band of utilizing the same texture and I also had a request to create a wide Birch band for a gentleman’s wedding ring
