A while back I posted about my something blue —a Yogo sapphire. Since it was a loose stone, I was going to design a necklace and have it made in Colorado. For those who commented and gave me design inspirations, thanks for your suggestions!

Well, after getting the stone, I started shopping around for the right jeweler to set it. Much to my dismay, jeweler after jeweler quoted me some pretty astronomical prices. With the clock ticking narrowly close to the wedding, I thought I might have to abandon the necklace. Remembering that delegation is the name of the game for this Cookie, I handed the task of setting the necklace over to my parents.

After countless hours of talking with jewelers and each other, they decided to have the stone set back in Montana at Roger’s Jewelry. I was pretty much out of the picture for the rest of the process, so I was shocked and wonderfully surprised to see my design come to life.

Here is my something blue:

The blue of the sapphire is a little hard to see in this picture, but it’s right there in the middle of the pendant.

What is your “something blue”?
