2 Carat Mug
January 2, 2009 by admin
Filed under Miscellaneous Gadgets

This gadget is the ultimate windup for any girlfriend. What appears to be a “Diamond” ring in a nicely packaged presentation box is indeed a porcelain mug. Within the presentation box all that can be observed is the handle of the mug which is shaped and designed like a standard engagement ring.
The scene has to be set, i.e. nice candle lit dinner (possibly on the anniversary of first meeting your girlfriend or on her birthday works well as well). Present the box to your girlfriend then watch her face light up then drop as she realized that an elegant ring is actually a mug.
