I Made an Engagement Ring From Scratch and Proposed During The Totality of the Solar Eclipse!

- In this one, we set upon what is undoubtedly the most important video I've ever made. We are making an engagement ring for Alexis from scratch, starting with all raw materials, including smithing and faceting. It was a very fun challenge, if not a little stressful, but I am unbelievably happy with the end result! The stone is a hydrothermal lab sapphire that we cut into a portuguese round surrounded by a halo of natural diamonds set in Silver. After finishing the ring, we left for a cross country road trip from Montana to Florida, stopping in Missouri for the total eclipse. I figured "how often do you get the opportunity to propose during the totality of an eclipse?" and managed to catch the moment on camera. I hope you all enjoy this amazing adventure and I will have another one out soon!

Talk about a total eclipse of the heart!
Congratulations on your engagement! I don't think anything could have been more prefect! Having a homemade ring is so much more special, knowing that you made it with your own hands. The time and effort you put into making the ring is a great way to prove your commitment to your future bride.
The eclipse took it over the top! Such a memorable experience, occurring during such a magical time of the cosmos! You, my friend, freaking nailed it! Well done! Thank you for sharing this with us! It's very heartwarming to see moments like this, and I'm thankful we got to share it with you. I can't confirm this, but I believe my eyes may have started to leak fluid for a short moment. I'll have to get that checked out next time I see my doctor... 😉
I’m so glad they got to see the ring on her finger. Great job Theo!
So excited for you two! If you still have the two other sapphires, you could make Alexis some matching earrings.
That was the Best Proposal ever !
Congratulations 🎊
Wow! So special and beautiful! Congratulations!
Congratulations!! That ring is timeless and you can see the time and care you put into it!
Thanks so much!😄 It was very stressful but honestly so much fun to make! Certainly worth every moment!😊 Thank you so much for watching!😄
I am so happy for you ❤😊 she's a wonderful girl. I got to meet her once. I walked into where she works and recognized her from the video. I was so excited to meet her that I forgot what I went in there for. Congratulations to you both.
