 * 1) Rate yourself on the rubric that appears below (do this on paper or by email)

- **Description**: Honestly, I have no idea of what I'd want in an engagement ring. I'm too young to be thinking about such things. But for the sake of design, I decided to look a few years ahead. There were many choices to be made, and the first was the band and what type of material it would be made out of. I chose white gold just because I dislike yellow gold and platinum is too blue. Second was the center stone and the shape it would take. I chose the princess cut, because that is the classic design for most engagement rings and I find it classy. Next was the outer stones and what shape they would be as well. I chose the rectangle because it compliments the angles of the square center diamond.

- **Critique**: Overall, I think the design of the site was appropriate for the choices to be made. The customization was decent but when it comes to engagement rings or jewelry at all, women usually want the most options as manageable. For me, I found the process quite enjoyable although it is a process I don't even want to begin thinking about.
