Adorn Answers ~ How do I measure my wrist for a bracelet?

📝 Introduction

In today’s ‘Adorn Answers’ blog, we’ll share our secrets to measuring for a bangle at home.

Whether you’re treating yourself or buying a gift, getting the right bracelet size can make all the difference between a comfortable fit and a fashion faux pas.

The good news? Measuring your wrist at home is so simple and we’ll show you how in just a few easy steps.

🧵 What You’ll Need

You probably already have everything nearby:

• A flexible measuring tape

• OR a strip of paper, string, or ribbon

• A ruler

• A pen or pencil (optional)

📏 Method 1: Use a Measuring Tape

1. Wrap the measuring tape snugly around your wrist—just below the wrist bone.

2. Make sure it’s not too tight or too loose—just comfy.

3. Note the number where the tape meets.

4. Write it down in centimetres (cm) and inches (in).

✨ Example: If your wrist measures 16 cm, that’s about 6.3 inches.

🧶 Method 2: No Measuring Tape? No Problem!

1. Wrap a strip of paper or string around your wrist.

2. Mark where it overlaps.

3. Lay it flat against a ruler and measure it.

4. Write down the result in cm and inches.

💡 Choosing Your Bracelet Fit

Now that you know your wrist size, choose your preferred fit:

• Snug fit: Add 0.5 – 1 cm (¼ to ½ inch)

• Comfort fit (most popular): Add 1.5 – 2 cm (¾ inch)

• Loose fit: Add 2.5 cm or more (1 inch+)

💬 Final Tips

• Check the bracelet’s product description—some designs (like bangles or cuffs) may fit differently.

• If you’re between sizes, we usually recommend sizing up for comfort.
