A Simple Guide on How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home

Method 1: Paper Strip Method

Things you need:

• thin strip of paper
• Ruler
• pen

How to measure:

• using a thin strip of paper, wrap it around your finger and ensure that the form is placed below the finger and close enough to your knuckle.
• Mark the area where the paper strip meets, then use the ruler to measure the distance.
• The number closest to the pen mark is the ring size in inches.

Method 3: Existing Rings Method

Want to get the ring size of a loved one without letting her know? You can use one of the rings worn by your loved one. Wear the ring until the point where it stops. Measure the area between the upper edge and lower edge of the ring. You can use these measurements to get a ring size.

If an existing ring fits, it can be used to measure the exact size. If you need to know the precise size in numbers, you can use a print chart included in this blog. Place the ring over the circles and choose the size best suits the call.

Do's and Don'ts in Measuring Ring Size at Home

• Do not measure fingers in cold weather as the coldness in temperature shrinks the fingers.
• Consider measuring the finger at the end of the day to ensure the temperature has settled down - not too cold or hot.
• If you have two sizes, it is best to choose a larger size.
• Measure the size of your finger three to four times to ensure you're getting an accurate measurement.
• Fingers can swell when taking some medications or if the person is pregnant. So make some adjustments accordingly.
