How to measure ring size at home
There are a few easy tricks to get a fairly accurate idea of your ring size at home. One way is to find an existing ring that fits correctly on the exact finger you want to measure. Then, you’ll match the inside edge of that ring to the correct diameter on a printable ring size chart. You can also separately measure the inner edge of the ring and use that number (in millimeters) to determine the correct ring size. If you don’t have a ruler, you can also use a strip of paper or a string to measure your ring finger.
