    My old was a ring I got from an Antiques shop for my 21st off my parent, new were my shoes, borrowed was a pretty handbag from my mum and a blue eye bead from MIL which doubled up as something bloue (although my dressmaker had also sewn a blue ribbon onto the dress).

    :) Mine is my 'non-engagement' ring.
    Old. The design was based on my old 21st birthday ring.
    New. The white gold used to make the ring.
    Borrowed. My grandma's diamonds from her engagement ring.
    Blue. The sapphire out of my 21st birthday ring.
