Copper Daisy Ring

I have to share the cutest story ever.
I was asked by a shop called Radway in Cowichan Bay that carries my jewelry if I could mail a little copper ring to a customer who's girlfriend saw it a week before. They had been in the shop and they left without it. I did not know the story but promptly mailed the ring for him. He paid dearly for the shipping and handling costs so I decided to reduce the price of the ring for him. I received this e-mail from him and I asked his permission to print it on my blog, so here it is:


"We stood in their shop and stared at it for a few minutes, my friend Angela liked it but couldn't decide. It was one of those "I have enough jewelry already, I shouldn't get anything else"So off to the wine festival we went... She couldn't stop talking about the ring for the rest of the day, and I said, let's go back and get it. No she said, we don't have time...Then we are back in Victoria and she's still saying she wished she had bought the ring... a week later So then I figured I better find the name of the shop and see if the ring is still there...I'm glad it was !She will be so surprised !I'm thinking of getting down on one knee and, playing around with the, "I have something special for you baby"Just to see her reaction...May not be a good idea though as we have only been dating three months...Thanks so much Jeff"

Some of the best feedback I ever received,
Cheers Jeff.
