Fantastic Five: A Ring Thing
This week and next, I thought I would try something a little different with Fantastic Five. So, we’re doing a two part series. One post this week and one post next week. Both on the same topic: rings!
Why rings? Well, here are my thoughts… There is so much jewelry sold online these days, it can sometimes be difficult to cut through it all and find what you are looking for. Bracelets, necklaces, earrings, etc. Different styles, designs, colors, shapes, sizes. Eek. It can be a little overwhelming. So, I thought I’d narrow down the search. And because absolutely anyone can wear a ring (probably one of the easiest ready-to-wear accessories), why not start there?
If you’re looking for a ring, I have you covered! I’ll be featuring rings in various styles and occasions, so you are bound to find something you like. I promise. And just in case you don’t find what you are looking for in this post, visit the ring section on Zibbet for more than 40 pages of decorations for your digits.
1. Oxidized Sterling Silver Stack Rings by Lilyja $84: This made to order silver stack set is perfect for everyday wear and can easily transition into special occasion jewelry as well. The small dot texture on each band almost looks like diamonds against the dark background on the oxidized silver. So lovely.
2. 14k Yellow Gold Love Rocks Wedding Band Set by Beth Cyr Jewelry $760: And speaking of everyday rings that can also be worn on special occasions, what about these beautiful (and simple) wedding bands from Beth Cyr? The texture adds a special touch to an otherwise simple band.
5. Recycled Skateboard Bling Bling Custom Ring by Seven Ply $18: Make an eco-conscience choice and look cool at that same time with these recycled skateboard rings from Seven Ply. Pretty fun, huh?
3. Blue Bird Ring by Lean Dog Pottery and Jewelry $15: If you are looking for a ring that is completely off the beaten path, this blue bird ring from Lean Dog is just what you are looking for. A small, ceramic bird perched on your fingertips? That’s unusual, but awesome.
4. Sweet Serenity Ring by Haute Nouveau $30: And finally, brass filigree surrounds the milky Botswana agate in this antique feeling ring from Haute Nouveau. Love the detail of the metal on the sides of the ring. Very unique. Don’t you think?
That’s going to wrap things up for this week’s post. I hope you’ll join me next week for part two!

Skateboard rings are cool.
I like the bird ring.

Nice selection!
wonderful picks! Love that gold! and the skateboard rings are cool! All of them rock!!
I love jewels, especially rings - so I really enjoyed this set of 5 & so excited about next week too! All of these rings are really unique & interesting. I really thought those were rhinestones or diamonds, can’t believe they are dot. I love the wedding bands. It’s hard to believe what you can made when you recycle. Who would have thought a skateboard would end up becoming rings? The bird is so cool. I love how it just perches right on your finger. I love the stone in the last picture. Brittni you have done it again, another FABULOUS FIVE!
Hugs,
Jennifer
