Re: Wearing ring?

I use the ring sizer too. Bought 'em at Walmart. (they come in a box with several sizes) Love 'em. Much cheaper than having a hinge put on.
My manicurist uses Windex to clean my jewelry too. Good stuff!
Take care Nicole

Hi Mary,
Well, maybe they put something else in Windex to make it blue - don't know. I just know it gets rings off & cleans them. The ring things I was referring to may be what you're talking about with the 'flexible ring sizer'. You can get them at WalMart or any jeweler.
I used to love angora - everyone knew you were going steady! And I could use some of that pep right about now too. First, the grandkids' dad killed himself New Years Eve & then my hubby's business was broken into last weekend & they got away with $150,000 worth of stuff. Hope this isn't an indication of the year to come!
Stop pouting. Get the ring thing & some Windex. (Again, I do NOT have stock in the stuff. You can get generic.)

Gee Candi, you arejust full of innovative ideas. Andy's ideas sounded a little spooky to me.
1) Yeah I've worn my wedding rings around my neck for years. Now I've been single for 10 years, and I just want to wear a ring on my finger the way normal people do [she pouts].
1) Windex is basically ammonia in water. I never thought of ammonia as slippery, but if they do it in hospitals, what the hey! (I've done stranger things in hospitals :-D
2) Where would one get the "ring sizer" object you talked about in the other post. I was hoping the ultimate solution to this might be a *flexible* ring sizer. The ring in question is already larger by about one size, so that spacer thing might really work
3) I was hoping not to resort to angora, but it seems to be the easyiest answer so far. It would make me feel like I am in the Pep Squad again! I could sure use some of that "pep" now!
Thanks Candi

Mair, ps:
If you use Windex, make sure you put a washcloth in the sink before you use it so the ring doesn't slip down the drain. Also, Windex is a really good ring cleaner without abrasives. And no, I don't own stock in Windex.

I have a question that SUM buddy in this group must have figured out. How do you wear a significant ring (i.e. wedding band) when you have a constant problem of finger swelling. My finger swells and the one with the ring turns blue.. YIKES... then my swelling goes away and the ring, if it's still there, slips off and gets lost.
I am thinking of a remedy for this, but want to hear the wisdom of the ages....
Come on...
