MEASURE YOUR RING SIZE AT HOME

What you’ll need:

A strip of paper (about 1/4 inch wide) or a thin string
Pen
Ruler (millimeters preferred, but centimeters work too)

Steps:

Choose the right time: Your fingers can fluctuate in size throughout the day, so it’s best to measure them at the end of the day when they are likely to be at their largest. Avoid measuring when your fingers are cold or swollen.

Cut a strip of paper or string: Cut a thin strip of paper, about 1/4 inch wide and at least 3 inches long. Alternatively, you can use a thin piece of string or floss.

Wrap it around your finger: Wrap the paper or string snugly but comfortably around the base of your finger you intend to wear the ring on. Make sure it’s not too loose and can slide over your knuckle easily. Mark the spot where the paper or string overlaps itself with a pen.

Measure the distance: Carefully remove the paper or string from your finger and lay it flat on a ruler. Measure the distance in millimeters (mm) from the mark you made to the end of the paper or string.

Use a ring size chart: Match your measured circumference in millimeters to a ring size chart. You can find many ring size charts online or printed on sizing guides provided by jewelry stores.

Tips:

If you’re between sizes, it’s generally better to choose the larger size.
Measure both your dominant and non-dominant hand, as ring size can vary slightly between them.
Consider printing a ring size chart and cutting out strips of different sizes to see which fits your finger best.
For the most accurate measurement, it’s always recommended to get sized at a jewelry store.

Additional notes:

Keep in mind that this is a general guide, and the accuracy of your measurement may vary.
Wider bands may require a slightly larger size to fit comfortably.

By following these steps, you should be able to get a good idea of your ring size at home. However, for the most precise measurement, it’s always best to visit a jewelry store and get sized professionally.
