My fiancé actually handmade my engagement rings out of wires. It's very beautiful with two hearts, however as much as I love it, it is not practical to wear as it will snag everything and it would very easily break. He made it only for the proposal as he wanted to show it was from his heart. I treasure this ring.

I do not want a set I.e. bridal set or engagement ring with a wedding band. I just want a single ring.

Thanks for your thoughts. Hearing different perspectives helps bringing my thoughts into reality than a mental picture. I would like to get a ring that I would wear at all times and want to wear it with pride that I found someone that I wanted to be with as that what counts the most.

Thanks goodness I am in no rush to get a ring... wedding will be in May. I have been battling with not allowing myself to enjoy some good things often while trying to be practical all the time. Someone once told me if I was not accepting a nice gift or feeling guilty about having something I have (that was well earned or deserved) then I was letting the devil steal my joy.

I like the idea of getting something that is durable to wear and that will not snag or hurt other people with it. It would also be something I would have to look at everyday. My goal is to find something that is reasonable and will not make me regret or feel selfish later. I have to admit, I am very feminine and enjoy pretty things but the same time I am a tomboy at heart.
