awww, I think that's one of the nicest ways to remember a person - especially if you can get an actual piece they wore! My Grandma's house was broken into last year & all her jewelery stolen which erased that chance for me. Bah. Which reminds me, I wanted to do a web search to find a similar necklace to her favourite.. thanks!

Yeah I have a hard time spending a lot of money on single pieces of jewelry - my wedding set, including cost of new stone, came in at just over 500, and several years later that still feels like an appalling amount of $ to spend on two rings.

woah nice justine. i didnt even know you could do that sort of thing.
I have my moms old white gold wedding band with a grip of diamonds around it from when she was married to my evil step father. She told me to get it melted down and design something I would like to wear. Feels like bad luck.

My mum tried to give me her diamond solitaire ring from her first marriage to a wife beater. unsurprisingly, I declined.
