Resting Ring

February 3rd, 2010 @ 4:55 pm by Mrs. Pug

As you know, my ring looks like this:

Spiky, no?

My pugs’ eyes look like this:

All vulnerable and protruding googly eyes.

When I come home, if I’ve remembered to wear my ring, I like to take it off ASAP and put it somewhere secure so I can pet my dogs with abandon, and not worry about gouging out their eyes. (I will not go into detail about the time where I accidentally hit my dog’s lower eyelid with the ring and she kept it shut for 2 days (was actually 2 minutes)—there was some serious panic and guilt, and Mr. Pug restraining me from having a breakdown.)

What to use? Where to rest my ring? Well, I could use a ring pillow:

Weddingbee PRO Llubav! Yes, it would be random for me to have a Mexican-inspired image at my wedding so don’t worry, I will not culturally appropriate it. But still, it’s super cool, isn’t it?

Llubav again! I luv Llubav.

This is totally cute for a wedding, but I’m not sure I would use it again as a more permanent storage option.

A ring bowl?

The ever-popular Paloma’s Nest

I love the creamy simplicity and the brief yet touching engravings.

Or, some creative ideas from the hive:

Is it a book? Is it a textbook? Is it a plane?

No, it’s a…

Ring book! (Photos ripped from Mrs. Sprinkle’s post)

Or how about something that puts a little smile on your face?

Or a ring box, made by Mrs. Gloss (something involving a laser cutter—whoa there stop right now!):

Can you believe she made these?

Well, not to be shown up by Mrs. Gloss, I decided that I would also forgo the expense of purchasing a resting place for my ring and come up with something on my own. Next time!

Where do you keep your rings when you’re not wearing them?

I have a crystal ring holder by the sink since I take it off when washing dishes. It was the first gift I received when I got engaged and it’s been my favorite! LOL

What a cool collection of creative ring storage ideas! I’d forgotten about Sprinkle’s cut out book–that’s so cool.

My FMIL gifted me with a Waterford Ring Holder the day after we got engaged! I think they’re a little funny looking, but they absolutely serve the purpose and it’s the PERFECT gift for a newly engaged girl!

I just don’t take mine off! The few times that I have were only for a moment or 2, and per my gramma’s advice, the ring went in my mouth=)

So cute! That Gloss is a talented lady. I throw my ring in my jewelry box, amid tangled necklaces and errant earring backs…bad Chip!

Mine will sit in a ring bowl after the wedding, or that’s the plan anyway, for now it sits on my bathroom counter, probably too close to the sink. Opps.

I used to keep them in the ring box that came with it, but that has long since been misplaced. Now they rest on the kitchen counter or bathroom counter, wherever I end up taking them off.

I have a cute little dachshund with a long tail that my ring sits on when I’m in the shower. Ironically I got it from FMIL almost 9 months prior to engagement.
