J.K. Had found the perfect ring. As he and his beloved ate a tasty dinner she had prepared, J. feigned choking. Coughing vigorously, he covered his mouth with his hands. He gasped for air, alarming her somewhat, but then calmed his “cough”, and stared in amazement into his cupped hands, which now held the ring.
A client recently came in with a lovely vintage engagement ring in need of some repair. She shared her engagement story. It was Thanksgiving, many years ago, and her young and sweet husband to be was ready to propose. He had a plan! He was going to hide the diamond ring INSIDE the pumpkin pie. Fortunately, he chose to share his idea with his mom, who convinced him, at the last minute, to leave at least the diamond visible above the surface.
Thanks mom, for saving the moment, the ring and, quite possibly, a tooth!
K. loves to go hiking. M, due to fear of heights, not so much. Still, When K suggested a day trip up to Angel’s Rest, M agreed. As they ascended the mountain, the trail got more and more narrow, and the color began to drain from M’s face. K, recognizing that M was in distress, suggested turning off the trail into a little clearing. Little did she know M’s anxiety was caused not so much by the height, but by the fact that he was about to propose! Stepping away from the edge, and avoiding the view, M produced the ring from his pocket, a lovely vintage solitaire he had discovered a few weeks earlier at Maloy’s. They sat on the grass, and M slipped the ring onto K’s finger. It fit perfectly… on her pinky. (She wore it there happily for a few days, till they made it into the shop together to have it sized, a complimentary service on rings purchased here)
We are proud of M for making it to the top so he could take the plunge!
