Fun Tips and Tricks
-
String Substitute: If you don't have measuring tape, use a shoelace or a piece of yarn! Just measure it against a ruler afterward.
-
Temperature Matters: Fingers can swell in heat or shrink in the cold, so always measure at a comfortable temperature.
-
Stone Awareness: If you're purchasing gemstone jewellery, keep in mind that certain stones may require extra care. For example, citrine care includes avoiding harsh chemicals, while pyrope garnet care suggests gentle cleaning with soap and water. Don’t forget to check out our Metal and Gemstone cleaning tips!
