At the end of part two, I had found a ring that I loved, but I wasn’t sure if we’d be able to size it. You see, the problem is that I have tiny fingers. Like… size 4. So, a lot of people kept telling me that there was no way the jeweler could size my half eternity that small without completely destroying the setting. But, I had faith in him!

Mr. Cardigan and I had a weekend trip to Austin planned right after we bought the band, so on our way home we stopped by the jeweler to talk to him and see what he could do. I literally had butterflies in my stomach when we were going into the shop, because I was so nervous he’d laugh in my face for even thinking it could be done. After all, my past experience with jewelers were less than pleasant. So, I was incredibly happy when he seemed 100% confident that he’d have NO PROBLEM sizing the ring for me. Really? YES! I practically danced out of the store and wouldn’t shut up about how excited I was the entire way home.

We had to wait a few days before he finished sizing the ring, and let me tell you – I was so. freaking. antsy.

I asked Mr. C about every 5 minutes if he thought the jeweler was finished yet, and I’m surprised he didn’t kill me. Finally about three days after we dropped it off, we got a call and he told us it was ready! We headed to his shop and picked it up – and it’s perfect!!! I am so incredibly happy with it, and I feel like we really lucked out on finding such a beautiful ring at such a great price.

See how small it is?

My two rings together! I like that they don’t match perfectly…it adds some uniqueness!

So, that officially concludes my search for a new wedding band! That’s one more thing to cross off the list!

Were you able to find a great wedding ring at a great price? Where did you find it?
