Congrats to Ed Sheeran<\/strong> for getting an engagement ring from Cherry Seaborn<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

Wait, WHAT?<\/h2>\n

\nA man getting an engagement ring???<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nTimes have definitely changed, and the modern era is paving a new path<\/strong>. Engagement rings for men is kind of like a promise ring<\/a>, but stronger<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Fully Committed!<\/h2>\n

\nEd was quoted as saying<\/strong> “I never saw why men didn’t wear engagement rings. It’s the same commitment either way. Cherry made it for me herself out of silver clay. I really like it, I haven’t told anyone that, either.”<\/p>\n

How Cool!<\/h2>\n

\nEd makes it cool (because he’s a cool cat<\/strong>) And I’m assuming that “silver clay<\/strong>” is probably silver colored “polymer clay<\/strong>“<\/a>, which many DIY Etsy artists<\/a> use to create all kinds of jewelry, pendants, rings… It’s pretty endless<\/strong> what you can mold. <\/p>\n

\n(Get your own polymer clay jewelry kit HERE!<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\nWorn on the same hand as the wedding band<\/strong> (the 4th finger of the left hand), it begs the ultimate question:<\/strong><\/p>\n

What’s a Man’s Engagement Ring?<\/h2>\n

\nWell, to be truthful, it’s just a common wedding band<\/strong>. Short and sweet. There is nothing magical <\/strong>or different about it. It’s a common band<\/strong> that you can find in any jewelry store or online (like Amazon here, selling from $1 and up<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\nWhat makes it different is your approach<\/strong>. Your attitude about the ring. Your desire to make your commitment known (take you off the market<\/strong>). <\/p>\n

\nTake a peek at some of the coolest wedding bands below<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\nBut there are a few tips<\/strong> that I can give you to make your engagement ring something special<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

1) Try something different<\/h2>\n

\nDon’t be afraid to wear a new metal<\/strong> (tungsten, titanium, rose gold, steel…), a different color<\/strong> (blue, red, black…), or one that glows-in-the-dark<\/strong> (like these ultra-hip mood rings here<\/a>). How about ceramic<\/a>? Wood<\/a>? Even silicone rubber rings<\/a> (as shown below)?<\/p>\n

2) Get Matching Couples Rings<\/h2>\n

\nThese are a very modern and fun way to go<\/strong> (p.s. you can also get matching pendants<\/a> too). Matching bands<\/a>, his and hers (or hers & hers<\/strong>, his & his<\/strong>), that really stand out in a crowd and get noticed.<\/p>\n

3) Buy a Silicone and Tungsten Ring Set<\/h2>\n

\nThese sets are awesome<\/strong>. It’s a two-fer. You get both a silicone ring, and a tungsten ring<\/a> as well. You can wear one for the engagement, one for the wedding, or just swap them out<\/strong> as many physically active people do. It’s a wonderful combo jewelry set<\/strong> to own. And, they make three different versions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

4) Buy One Ring, Buy Two!<\/h2>\n

\nSome people buy an engagement ring<\/strong> that gets used for the engagement. Then this same ring gets used as the wedding band after the ceremony<\/strong>. But nothing says you can’t have two rings<\/strong>. Buy a unique engagement ring that you can switch over<\/strong> to your other hand once you change your Facebook status<\/strong>. Two rings are twice <\/strong>as visible, and twice as nice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

5) Keep the Engagement Ring as a Back up<\/h2>\n

\nYou can also put the engagement ring aside, and use it as a backup<\/strong> in case you lose your wedding band (you’d be surprised how often that happens<\/strong>). That way, you’ll never be without a ring (unless you leave that one on the sink in the airport bathroom<\/strong>)…<\/p>\n

6) Buy 2 Thinner Bands<\/h2>\n

\nWear BOTH rings together<\/strong>; the engagement ring and the wedding band. And you can do this if you buy the rings thin enough to stack<\/strong> (stacking rings<\/a> are widely popular<\/strong> right now). Stick with 3mm or 4mm each<\/strong> (which becomes 6mm and 8mm once put together). You can mix and match<\/strong> colors, metals, designs… It’s a great way to truly be different<\/strong> (And you can also get them soldered together as one<\/strong> after the wedding).<\/p>\n
