A simple step-by-step guide to measuring your ring size at home accurately using string or paper.
Buying a ring online can be tricky if you don’t know your exact size — but measuring it at home is easier than you think! Here’s how to do it with simple items you already have.
Wrap the paper or string gently around the base of your finger — snug, but not tight. Remember, your fingers can slightly swell during the day, so measure at room temperature.
Mark where the paper meets the starting point. Then, measure the length in millimeters using a ruler.
Use a standard ring size chart to find your size based on circumference. For example:
| Circumference (mm) | US Size | UK Size |
|---|---|---|
| 44.2 | 3 | F |
| 46.8 | 4 | H |
| 49.3 | 5 | J |
| 51.9 | 6 | L |
| 54.4 | 7 | N |
| 57.0 | 8 | P |
| 59.5 | 9 | R |
| 62.1 | 10 | T |
For the best accuracy:
If you already have a ring that fits perfectly, measure its inner diameter and compare it to the chart instead — it’s a great cross-check.
✨ Pro Tip: When in doubt between two sizes, go slightly larger — it’s easier to resize a ring down than to stretch it up.
