How was
BlingGuard born?
From the Proposal moment came the challenge which was quickly transformed to obsession and later became a solution. Here's the story of how our brand was born.
When did it all start?
The Proposal
In 2005, I was given the greatest gift one can imagine. I was dating a remarkable man who invited me for a weekend in New York City. That Saturday in an Audrey Hepburn moment, we walked out of our hotel and headed to Tiffany & Co. We were greeted by the store manager and led to a private room with a table set with 2 glasses of champagne and breakfast. A few minutes later my boyfriend began saying sweet things and proposed!
What was the problem?
The Challenge
Later in the day as I started to come back to earth I was admiring my beautiful ring and saw that it kept falling over the side of my finger. I took it to the jeweler and the only solution available was to place two small bearing balls on the inside. I was horrified! I did not want to permanently change my new ring. At the same time, I was worried about losing my ring like I had so many other rings back in high school.
What amplified the problem?
The Obsession
I was convinced there was a better way to solve these problems. As I was looking for a solution, I started noticing my friends, colleagues, and women everywhere seemed to have the same issue. Then, at my sister's rehearsal dinner, disaster struck. My Grandmother lost the ring my Grandfather had given her... it was GONE!
How was it resolved?
The Solution
That night I decided we had to find a solution. BlingGuard BlingWraps are that solution. They keep rings perfectly positioned so they look their best, and they help prevent them from sliding off your fingers.
