Look near the computer, under the keyboard, around the monitor. Check the printer.

I thought I lost a bracelet several years ago only to find it behind the dresser when we were moving two years later. Highly unlikely that it was stolen from your bag at the airport. You will be surprised you may even find it in one of the places you have already looked. Don't lose hope..just believe that it will turn up!

I agree with re-tracing your steps. But not just re-tracing them. Physically going through the motions of doing what you were doing at the time you think you hid them. I can't tell you how many times doing this led me to what I was missing!

Someone once said to me, "when you care about something that much, you never really 'lose' it. You just 'misplace' it temporarily." Definitely keep the faith and definitely pray to St. Anthony as well. Believe that they WILL turn up! Even if you checked someplace once, check again. You never know what you may have accidentally overlooked the first time.

Good luck!!

Go through each room and look at all the places you would put the rings if you had them there and you were doing it all over again. Maybe it will trigger a memory of where you might have put it.

Re: Has anyone forgotten where they put their wedding rings?

I lost my wedding band a few years ago. I turned my house upside down trying to find it.

Fast forward 4 months later. I am getting ready to drive upstate NY for my BFFs bridal shower/girl's weekend. I'm cleaning out my car because it's always a mess. I find my wedding band under the passenger seat of my car.

Once I found it, I remembered that my hands were swollen that day and I must not have had it all way down. I was hoping the cold steering wheel would take the swelling down.) It must have fallen off when I put my DS in his carseat.

Up to that point, I NEVER thought that it was in the car. Please don't give up hope. You may find that it turns up in the place you least expect it.

BTW- My MIL had a St. Anthony metal that she let me take and I prayed to that also. I do think there's something to it.

Thank you for sharing your story. I know I never take it off in the car and had it in the house, but I will check my car tomorrow.

Weird thing happened, as I was cleaning my drawer yesterday looking for ring, I find a St. Anthony prayer card with chain around it never opened. Not sure where it came from. I have been wearing the chain.

To give you another story of hope. One day like you I was going on vacation and left my claddagh ring at home. When we returned I couldn't for the life of me remember where I put it. Months had gone by and I was almost ready to buy a new one and I found it in the bathroom vanity cabinet. It will turn up and don't lose faith.

Good Luck

Do you have any pets? I have had a few close calls where I took my rings off and put them on the counter or dresser thinking they were safe, and then my cat came along, knocked them off and played with them. I've found them in baseboard crevices and under dressers. Pick up any items that are on the floor, move furniture...I pray you find them!

We don't have pets or kids. A lot of stories I read in a google search in my situation, a dog , cat or child was to blame.

Ha ha well it was actually my husband who lost it when he put it in a " safe place" during our move...when I was pregnant and too bloated to wear it. I was upset for years so when he found it, he did not tell me. Instead he took the diamond to the jeweler to be reset (in a setting I had mentioned more recently) and cleaned. Then, he gave it to me in a big romantic gesture 4 months later on Christmas. Needless to say I never really found out where he found it other than a box in the basement.

I brought this up to DH yesterday. I read that it is hard in houses due to it going off with all the other metal it will find in the house, but I read online of one girl that found it in her house.

Do you or anyone know where we could rent one?

I did consider that, but hey, you never know. My husband says hobby store would have metal detectors.....but I'm not sure what he means by hobby stores lol.

All the way in the back of your dresser or drawers
The bathroom...uner the toilet tank thing?
Im trying to think of random places I would hide something...

Thank you. Shoes in the closet was my first spot to look. I just don't know where else to look. In the process of going through garbage for third time. I have it separated from this time period until I realized it was missing. Very frustrating! It is like a mystery.

Checked them all twice.

Thanks so much.

I guess at this point I have just lost my mind. I don't know how this could have happened. Chat Icon
