My girlfriend sent me a Pinterest board with 47 vintage rings. I am so overwhelmed. Where do I even start?
I love my girlfriend but she just dumped a Pinterest board on me with 47 different engagement rings and said "I like all of these!" Great, super helpful. They are all over the place, some look like super elaborate Edwardian lace, others are geometric Art Deco, and some are just simple vintage solitaires.
I am so lost. I know she only wears yellow gold and wants a low-profile setting because she works with her hands a lot and hates things that snag. But that’s about all I’ve got to go on.
I’ve been trying to find a way to narrow this down or maybe just build something custom that takes pieces from her favorite eras. I was checking out an online site, saw they have a tool where you can design your own engagement ring. I'm thinking maybe I can combine a few of the vintage design elements she pinned onto a low-profile yellow gold band so it's actually practical for her.
Has anyone else dealt with this Pinterest overload? How did you decode what era or style she actually wanted when everything she pinned looks completely different?
