How To Measure Your Wrist for Bracelet Sizing



How to Measure Your Wrist for the Perfect Bracelet Fit

When you’re shopping for bracelets—especially ones as meaningful as your vision board charm bracelet—getting the right size makes all the difference. A bracelet that fits just right feels more comfortable, looks better, and keeps your charms sitting exactly where you want them. The good news? Measuring your wrist at home is super easy! Here’s a quick step-by-step guide.

What You’ll Need:

  • A flexible measuring tape (like the kind used for sewing)
  • OR a piece of string and a ruler

Step 1: Find Your Wrist’s Sweet Spot

Locate the spot on your wrist just below your wrist bone—this is where your bracelet will naturally rest.

Step 2: Wrap and Measure

If you’re using a measuring tape, wrap it gently around this spot. Make sure it’s snug but not tight, then note the number where the tape overlaps. That’s your wrist size!

Step 3: No Measuring Tape? No Problem!

Grab a piece of string and wrap it around your wrist the same way. Mark where the string overlaps, then lay it flat against a ruler to get your measurement.

Step 4: Choose Your Fit

For a snug fit, add about ½ inch to your wrist size. For a looser fit, add about 1 inch.

Step 5: Order With Confidence

With your measurement in hand, you’re ready to pick the perfect size bracelet. No more guessing, no more slipping bracelets—just a custom fit every time!

✨ Pro Tip: If you’re in between sizes, go for the slightly larger size for comfort.
