Want to order a bracelet but don't know what size you need? No worries. With a measuring tape or string, you can measure your wrist size in just a few steps. This way, you can be sure your new bracelet fits perfectly.
What do you need? 🔧
- A flexible measuring tape (such as a tape measure from a sewing kit)
- Or a string and a ruler
- Possibly a pen
Method 1: Using a measuring tape 📏
- Wrap the measuring tape around your wrist, just below the wrist bone.
- Hold it comfortably tight—you should be able to slide a finger between the tape and your wrist.
- Read the measurement where the measuring tape overlaps.
- Note the measurement in centimeters.
Method 2: With a string 🧵
- Wrap the string around your wrist.
- Mark with a pen where the string overlaps.
- Place the string straight next to a ruler.
- Measure the distance between the start and the mark.
Which fit do you choose? ✨
You've now measured your wrist circumference. For a well-fitting bracelet, add some space:
- Tight fit: wrist circumference + 1 cm
- Comfortable fit: wrist circumference + 1.5 cm
- Loose fit: wrist circumference + 2 cm
Helpful tips 💡
- It is best to measure in the evening – your wrists may swell slightly during the day.
- Measure the wrist you want to wear the bracelet on.
- Not sure between two sizes? Choose the larger one for more comfort.
With this simple method, you'll know exactly what size you need. And remember: jewelry is meant to be enjoyed. Wear it with pleasure; pearls only become more beautiful with frequent wear.
