Hi my name is Courtney and I'm a ring-aholic

I love to scour my grandmothers jewelry box. My yearly trips to the lake in Virginia would not have been complete had I not dug through her handmade wooden treasure chest at the edge of her vanity.  One time, I even found my mothers wedding dress and added to the laughter of 9 year old me tripping down the stairs by putting on some extravagent pearls, multiple rings and maybe a bracelet (or five).

Maybe it's my innate desire for old things but, I love vintage rings.
Well, I love rings in general.


Not vintage, but super coooooool.
more ring for your buck, stacking rings!!

I wear the same mix of rings for a good while and then I'll do a mini switcheroo and no one notices but me. (It's all about making yourself feel like you're changing it up :))

This weekend I was in my cousin's BEAUTIFUL wedding and the mother of the bride wore one of my grandmothers antique rings. I was j- lous! It had even been passed down to my grandmother by her Aunt Helen. Now that is some serious heritage! It looked VERY similar to this one I found on Etsy...



buy it here on Clutterslaststand's etsy shop!


Hopefully one day I can inherit some goodies from that old wooden treasure chest but until then, I'll keep my own collection going :)
