2011 Year of Pleasures #23

For years, YEARS!, I’ve had this idea in mind for a project using a ring with a premade bezel. I searched and searched and came up empty. When I could find one in a jewelry finding catalog it was the wrong size and totally awful looking. Having one custom made was cost prohibitive. I even bought rings and tried to get the stone out, but I just ended up destroying the whole thing.

Then in my weekly perusal of the craft stores….BAM! The very perfect thing. When I found it on the shelf I wanted to run through the aisles of the craft store, hugging everyone I saw.

Now to get to work.
