What to Do if Your Ring Doesn’t Fit
If you want to know how to measure ring size then you read the article. Ring size is a crucial part of any wedding planning. It can help ensure your ring will fit correctly and won’t accidentally fall off during your big day.
There are many different ways to find out your ring size. But, some methods are more accurate than others. Ultimately, it’s up to you to choose which method works best for you.
String Measurement
A ring size chart is an easy way to determine a ring size that will fit comfortably on your finger. It’s simple to do at home using a 6-inch piece of string, a ruler, and a pen.
To get started, wrap a piece of string around the base of your ring finger. Make sure that the string fits snug but not too tight.
Mark the string where it overlaps with a pen and measure the difference in millimeters between the mark and the end of the string. Compare this to the ring size chart and pick the nearest number.
The standard ring size goes up by 0.4 millimeters for every half-size, so you may need to try a few different sizes to find one that works best for you. You can also use a paper strip, ribbon, or tape to measure your ring size at home.
Paper Strip Measurement
Paper strips are a very popular way to measure finger size for rings. It is very simple to do and is a very effective homemade method for working out ring sizes.
The first step is to cut a strip of non-stretchy paper about 4 inches long. Fold it around the base of your finger, making sure that it is snug but also able to go over the knuckle as your ring would.
Next, mark the point on it where it completes a circle. Then, measure the circumference from the beginning to that point with a ruler.
Match that measurement to the corresponding ring size on our conversion chart. This will help you to order a ring that fits perfectly.
Tape Measurement
A tape measure is a handy tool that can help you take measurements and find the perfect size for a ring. Tape measures are made up of a metal blade with a hook or tang at the end.
Some have a serrated scribing edge on the end of the tang that can be used to mark a spot on the material being measured. The tang is usually slightly concave to improve the tape’s rigidity.
Inches, feet and fractions are the basic markings found on most tape measures. Some have helpful fractions in addition to the hash marks – for example, a 1/4″ is half of a 1/2″ or 1/8 ” is half of a 1/4″.
The blade on a tape measure is stretched across the length you want to measure. Pulling the tang and stretching the blade will make a mark on the measuring tape that you can then use to calculate your ring size.
Ring Sizer
The ring sizer is a convenient tool that helps you measure your finger’s ring size before purchasing. It can be a thin measuring tape or a keyring lined with lines of ring sizes, and it’s easy to keep on hand when you’re shopping for rings for yourself and other people in your family.
The size of your finger can fluctuate throughout the day due to weather, diet, medication, and activity. This means that you may need to resize your ring from time to time, especially if it was purchased online or from a store.
To measure your ring size, you need to wrap the ring sizer around your finger and slide the pointed end through the slot it’s marked with. The number that lines up with Slot “A” is your ring size.
