I ordered this ring for DD about to turn 13 (God help me) on May 1st. It's a gift from her Grandma, who wanted to give her something really special. I got a great deal on My Jewelry Box, $126.00 w/ free shipping (and I get to keep the 6% back!!)

What do you all think of it?

Oh that is pretty. I like how it is two toned so that she can wear it with either gold or silver jewelry.

I remember getting a ring for my 13th birthday. It was a little saphire ring. I still have it in my jewelry box.

Very pretty, ya, I like the two toned too. How cool a ring for her 13th. I think special birthdays like that for girls deserve a good piece of jewelry.

It's lovely-I wish I'd checked Myjewelry box for Dniece's 13th in October.

That is adorable! I wanted a beautiful necklace for DD19 birthday, but I waited too late and didn't want to pay for the express shipping, but all I can think about is that beautiful necklace. It was a small heart inside of a larger one. I thought it could represent her inside of our heart. I think I'm gonna still get it for her.

I'm sure your daughter will love it!

I think she will love it and I'm glad to hear that you all think so too. My MIL asked me to pick out something really special that she could always have to mark her entrance into the teen years. My daughter asked DH and I for a name plate, but we told her that we'd get her that for 8th grade graduation (she's in 7th now), so she will be thrilled to get this special piece of jewelry from Grandma.

Thats so pretty! Ok I have to ask, whats a name plate? I don't have any kids and I'm kinda out of the loop since no nieces or nephews live close by.

If its what I'm thinking of Nameplates are those necklaces that have your name spelled out in cursive writing. They were popular when I was in middle school. I never had one.

Gottcha, I was more thinking of a desk name plate:rotfl: was wondering what a 13 year old would want with one of those.... looks like aunt Cindy needs to spend some more time with the kiddos.

That would be quite a surprise for her!! No, Catherine was right, it's a necklace with her name written out in gold and she wants the 1st letter in diamonds. Quite sophisticated , these 7th graders. "All" of her friends have them, but DH and I feel that it's a little too expensive for a birthday, so we said we'd make that her 8th grade graduation present. She goes to Catholic school, so 8th grade grad is a big one. They were popular when I was in HS (I'm 40) so I guess they resurface every few years and become popular again.

I love the ring. I think it's very delicate and classic, but modern enough that a teenager would appreciate it. I like the dual tone gold too. Will go with just about anything.

Oh, she is going to love the ring. What a surprise! It is a great gift for turning 13, one of many rites of passage. I like two tone myself so I can mixed and match.


I forgot about those name plates.....I never had one but I loved them.
