How to Measure Your Wrist

Wire Bracelets
To determine bracelet size, measure the wrist with a flexible tape measure. Make sure to measure just below the wrist bone, where you would place your wristwatch and measure snug (see image). If you do not have a tape measure simply use a piece of string or a ribbon and then measure the string with a ruler. Now add 1½ inches for the “bracelet” measurement, which adds room for the lobster clasp. Then on your order form choose the size that is closest to this measurement. This is approximate sizing and not a guarantee of perfect sizing. Due to bead size variations we have a 1/8 of an inch tolerance in sizing.

If this bracelet is a gift for an adult or young lady, and you don’t know wrist size, we would consider 6.5 as petite, 7 as small, 7.5 as medium, 8 as large and 8.5 as extra large. The “standard” average size is 7.5.



Elastic Bracelets
Are available in three sizes:
Small (6.5), Medium (7.5) and Large (8.5). Medium is the standard size and fits most.

Resize, Restring or Repair Your Bracelet
Your jewelry is guaranteed for the first 30 days. With proper care, our jewelry is designed to last for years. Any repairs necessary after 30 days have elapsed would be treated as normal wear and tear and subject to a restring/repair charge. We will gladly repair your bracelet (and replace any lost beads) for the designated restring fee plus any cost for replaced beads.

Labor Cost for Resize, Restring or Repair:
* Single Strand: $10.00 + any cost of any additional beads needed.

If there is any additional charge for missing beads, we will notify you and charge you the difference. We will not know the exact amount until the bracelet is restrung, as different bracelet sizes will have slight variations in the type or number of beads used. Please send repairs and restrings to: Thoma Designs • P.O. Box 285 • Brookfield, IL 60513

If it has been less than 30 days since the shipping date on your order, we will restring or repair your bracelet for free. We do charge for resizing, so please choose your size carefully when placing your order. If you need a repair or restring within 30 days of your order ship date, please contact us immediately.

Please email laura if you have any questions.
