Can you find the ring in the photo?

We were most distressed last weekend, when newlywed Patrick misplaced his wedding ring. We turned the house (and many cardboard boxes) upside down looking for it. We retraced our steps. We kept asking Patrick (apparently frustrating) questions like "When do you usually take it off?" and "Where do you usually put it when you take it off?". Patrick's unfaltering response was "I don't KNOW. I've only had it for a WEEK!"

After Patrick & Kirstin returned to NY, Thomas found the ring. Right out in the open. As Kirstin put it "the easiest thing we never found."
The ring is really very cool. It's made of wood, and they plant a tree for every ring you buy. We sure are glad he didn't lose it!

I see it! On the handle of the sink on the left side in the photo...wow, I can see why it was so hard to find. I looked for a while before I saw it.

Poor Patrick!

Thanks for pointing it out. I never would have found it. I thought it was a dirty trick and there was no ring in the picture. Eli, you'll have to paint them up some of those cute ring holders!

ironically, patrick and kirstin spent their friday afternoon (while we were working) here painting pottery -- including a ring holder -- days before the near loss...
