If you are reading this article, this has probably happened to you, too. The first response is “to resize them.” Though that is a logical response, it also can be expensive not to mention “I may lose those extra 30 lbs. again and fit back in it!” Let’s review some options to get back our bling. Scouring the internet for do it yourself ideas on this matter, a few cheats and fixes help. Whether your ring is too small or too big, there are very clever solutions to remedy this problem.

An easy and interesting idea is to not wear them as rings at all, but create an interesting necklace using them as pendants. Similar to high school girlfriends wearing their boyfriend’s class ring on a chain. Some rings are sentimental and unique and the idea of altering them sometimes seems like a daunting task. Finding a substantial chain or cord and sliding them onto it not only keeps them close to your heart, but it’s a unique way of showing off your jewelry.

Find a hard round surface that is the diameter of the ring such as a wine stopper or lip stick holder. Place the ring on it and mark the item where the ring fits. ...
... Hold it in place as close as the mark is. Tap gently with a small tooling hammer or rubber mallet around the ring until it stretches to a larger size. Gold and silver are somewhat malleable making the ring approximately half a size bigger if you have those tools lying around being a cheaper option than going to get the ring resized.
What if your ring is now too big? You have exercised your pants off and now your ring too. There are a few home remedies to keep that precious jewelry safe where it belongs on your finger. Buy a product called a ring adjuster or ring wrap. Adjust the guard to fit into the bottom of the ring to the right size you need. Pricing depends on the material used like plastic or metal.

There is also a product known as a sizing bead. Place two small beads inside the bottom of your ring and dab epoxy on the balls to set them onto the ring. This will adjust your ring size smaller by half a size to a whole.
Lastly, tie string around and set it with clear nail polish.
Though going to a jeweler to adjust the sizing is the most polished and professional approach, these temporary tips may save you a few dollars and who knows, I might even lose those pounds and fit back in my jeans and rings.
