"Sometimes life gets tough, and we need a reminder to keep on moving towards the good life. For me, this reminder comes in the form of three words, Pray, Trust, and Rejoice. Because getting a tattoo was out of the question, I needed to figure out another way to display my favorite verb trio—jewelry. It took me three years to finally decide exactly what I wanted (three stackable bands with a word engraved on each ring). Now came the hard part, finding a designer that could execute my three year conception. Meet The Clarity Project. A good friend of mine told me about Shane of The Clarity Project and told me that he was just the man to get the job done. Shortly after an email introduction, Shane and I met to design the rings together. It was so easy—he listened to my story, understood the importance, and promised that the rings would be done to perfection. I trusted Shane from the get go and felt confident in the promise he made me. Shane is a man of his word! My rings are amazing—everything I asked for and more. I wear my rings daily as a reminder of the good life and smile knowing that they all are fair trade. I would Highly recommend The Clarity Project for anyone that is looking to build a one-of-a-kid piece."

— Heather

"I was finally able to pick up the ring today and it is absolutely gorgeous. If all goes according to plan, I'll put it into action on Tuesday... it's the day after our opening night, so I'm pretty sure she won't be expecting it. Thank you sooo much for all your help with this, and we'll be in touch about the wedding bands when we get a better idea of our plans. Thanks!" [read more]

"Aaron and I met during a production of Hamlet with his theatre company, of which I am now also a proud member. We have acted in six productions together, during which we have run the gamut of stage relationships (brother/sister, brother/sister/lovers, cousins, troubled couples). We often joke that we have such a successful relationship because we get all of the drama out onstage!

We had been dating for just under three years when we opened our most recent show, Aftermath, which is an original play written by one of our company's co-artistic directors about Rolling Stones founder Brian Jones. The evening after we opened the the show, Aaron cooked me a delicious dinner and then asked if he could play me my songs (he had written me a couple of songs over the years, and I had been mentioning recently that it had been awhile since he'd played them).

After playing "Between the Lines" and "Lavender Girl," he told me that he had been working on a new song for me and asked if I wanted to hear it. (I of course said yes). He proceeded to play a gorgeous song, the first chorus of which was the repeated word "Will," the second chorus "Will you," and the third chorus "Will you marry me?" He then got down on one knee and opened a small white box to reveal a stunning ring!

I was in a bit of shock—an elated, giggly, tearful shock—but I (almost) immediately replied "Of course!" After a few minutes, I realized that I still hadn't tried on the ring!" I had no idea that Aaron had been working on both the ring and the proposal song for the past four months. When he told me the story behind the ring and The Clarity Project, I was thrilled!

Environmental and social responsibility are high priorities for me, and it is such a joy to wear a stunning piece of jewelry that symbolizes our love and commitment and helped support a great cause. I know that Aaron and Shane worked closely on the design (Aaron told me he secretly photographed my jewelry so that Shane could get a sense of what I like), and I hear that this original design is now quite popular! (I certainly won't object if you'd like to call it "Simone"!)

Aaron and I have now embarked on a three month road trip out west, and we feel so grateful to have the chance to explore a substantial chunk of the U.S. and really enjoy our engagement. Our wedding ceremony will take place over Labor Day weekend 2011 at his parents' ranch in Carbondale, CO with a reception the following weekend in our hometown of Chicago. Many thanks to The Clarity Project for helping make this time of our lives so very special!"

— Aaron & Simone

"I gave Laura her ring Monday morning. She absolutely loves it. Perfect size stone, the setting is just her style, and it fits perfectly. More importantly she was thrilled to hear about The Clarity Project and is wearing her ring with more pride than she otherwise would have."[read more]

"Little background, we went to this newly re-opened historic/landmark hotel in Watch Hill, RI—The Ocean House. 5 AM rolled around and I planted the ring on the nightstand and started my day—admittedly with a fair bit of noise. She woke up and checked the alarm clock and flopped back in bed. She didn't notice the ring right away, and when I asked her to look again I got down on a knee. Beautiful place, great sunrise over the ocean, and a surprising time of day to get the question.

Thanks again to you and the design team for your work. I'll be in touch to discuss bands in the near future!"
