When I started making silk thread bangles I wanted the size of bangles people wear to make the right size for them. Many people found it difficult to tell me their bangle size. After searching the net, I found out an information, which was a learning for me too. I am sure people will be benefitted by this.
How Can I Find My Bangle Size?
To determine your bangle size, follow these steps:
STEP 1: Close your fingers together and bring your thumb to your little finger (as pictured). Pretend that you were putting on a bangle
STEP 2: Using a strip of paper or tape measurements, wrap it around your hand at the widest point.. If you are using a plain strip of paper, mark your size with a pen on that paper. Then measure that paper strip with a ruler. That would be the circumference of your hand.
STEP 3: Compare your hand circumference to the chart below. Purchase a bangle with diameter that is the next size up from your actual hand measurement.
DIAMETER CIRCUMFERENCE SIZE
2 3/8" 7 1/2" Small
2 5/8" 8 1/4" Medium
2 3/4" 8 3/5" Large
