Racheal B asked:


This probably sounds stupid but I have my original gold diamond wedding set but I **** mixing yellow gold and white gold jewelry and I would like to wear more of my white gold jewelry but we can’t afford another diamond set in white gold. I was thinking of just getting a white gold set with a simulated diamond just to wear with my white gold jewelry…thoughts and opinions?

Choosing a Wedding Ring

Filed under: Marriage — wood_rings @ 10:17 pm

Rebecca Sherman asked:


Nothing says forever like wedding rings. Their symbolism steeped in rich history coupled with precious metals mark the permanence of a lifelong commitment, and will endure beyond decades of married life.

Gold is often considered a traditional setting; and platinum has taken off as the newest trend in wedding jewelry. The decision to go for the gold or opt for platinum is based on the personal style of the bride and groom. However, certain factors may contribute to the couple’s wedding ring selection.

Style What does your wedding ring say about you? Platinum is geared toward a more modern look, while gold is traditionally beautiful. When evaluating your style, consider the future as well as the present, as you will be wearing this ring for years to come.

Matching Existing Jewelry Look at your (and your fiancée’s) jewelry collection - do you see gold, silver or a combination of both? If a bride typically wears only silver jewelry, she may wish for a platinum ring to accent her existing pieces; conversely, a gold jewelry fan would likely pick a gold ring. Grooms may wish to match their ring to their favorite watch or ID bracelet. If a couple has different tastes, they may choose a wedding ring that incorporates multiple metal tones and colors.

Quality While gold will stand the test of time, platinum is a stronger and more durable metal. Couples who decide on gold should select 14K-18K wedding rings. For gold, high karats mean intense color but less durability. Given the length of time this piece will be worn, durability is an extremely important factor.

Allergic Reactions to Metals If the bride or groom reacts to the metals found in certain types of jewelry, a platinum wedding ring may be the way to go. Over 90 percent pure, platinum is hypoallergenic to most people.

Price If shopping by price, gold offers the best value for your money. While platinum is more durable than gold, it is also more expensive. If a couple longs for a light-colored metal but cannot afford platinum, consider opting for a white gold wedding ring as an affordable alternative.

Whatever your decision, gold and platinum wedding rings are a wonderful way to express your love and commitment to each other and will undoubtedly last as long as your love.

Bermuda shutters add exotic island flair to interior decoration of homes and offices. They are the best possible shutters to give your home a personal decor and international taste.  Available in various designs, the Bermuda shutters are most preferred among the decorators for protection extended by them to walls from damaging effects of direct sunlight.

For their awesome look and varied decorative fabrication, these shutters are most preferred by the coastal and desert communities. They can be opened from the horizontal angle which ensures strong protection from the sunlight without affecting free air flow. Though a derivative product of the coastal culture of Bermuda, yet its decorative appeal has cross-cultural impact irrespective of geographical locations. Now, they are in great demand for their rising use by many exteriors throughout the world.

The chunky lines and fabulous beauty of the Bermuda shutters are well synthesized with natural taste and texture of authentic wood. Wooden shutters due to its crafted fine detail post a wonderful flair on your home or business decoration. High quality woods like Pine, Redwood and Western Red Cedar grain texture crafted on them are worth of your money value. Putting custom made painting on the shutters add to their decorative value.

These Shutters are mostly designed for tropical homes and effective for use against sun screening and reasonable storm protection. A panel of the shutters is enough to cover the whole window. It is fixed with a custom-fit support arm so that the product hangs from the top and remains in open position to ensure ocean breezes during afternoon naps.

Selecting Bermuda shutters

While selecting the your shutters, following basic things need to be taken care of.

Sizing: Correct sizing is the most causative factor in your bid to have the window externally decorated. Before ordering for the shutter, be sure of the correct measurement of your window. Even if your Bermuda shutters are non-functional sizing them properly is the greatest requirement to have a tasteful decoration of your home.

Rail and Stile Dimensions: Before installing the product you must ensure that the dimensions of the stiles and rails should be balanced to the general size of the shutter. To avoid your window from blocking the side bolt, the central rail must not be offset to the sash and latch from the inside.

Wood Quality: Use of high-quality and decay-resistant wood like Western Red Cedar or Mahogany is certain to give a long life and better flair to the shutters. A thicker shutter though better needs for 1-5/16″ thick rails and stiles.

Protecting Your Shutters: Always go for capping. Copper cap is a smart option though aluminum is handy and more cost-effective. Before applying paints on them use a good primer. Never forget top re-coat any failing paint instantly to guarantee the longevity.

Hardware Specification: hardware is as vital to the overall look of windows. Properly painted and cared for shutter hardware lasts a long time. Stainless steel hardware ensures durability and most suitable for coastal applications. With regard to the hardware style you have to search for a good supplier and apprise him of your personal choice. Preference for quality embodied and designer locks, pull rings, and bullet catches add to the style.

How do I identify a recently purchased traditional drum - wooden with animal skin head held in place by cords?

Filed under: Performing Arts — wood_rings @ 11:23 am

Ray S asked:


I purchased a traditional wooden african-looking drum that sits 2 feet high and looks like a pot on a pedestal. The base of the pedestal is about 9 inches and the diameter of the drum head covering the “pot” top is 14 inches. The drum head is held in place with an arrangements of heavy black cords that connect covered metal (?) rings around the drum head and and lower down the “pot”. I would appreciate knowing what you think the name of such a drum is but I would also like to know how I can research such drums - pictures, histories, etc.. Any good websites or groups?
