People resize rings for many different reasons. For some it is weight loss or weight gain, and for others it is simply to be able to wear the ring on a different finger. Resizing is very common and can be done on most rings, but there are some exceptions. To better understand when sizing can and cannot be done, one must understand the process.
Making a Ring Smaller
Decreasing the band size on a ring is fairly easy when done by a jeweler. For the ring to be made smaller, the jeweler must cut out a small portion of the band. The ring must then be reshaped to the proper circular shape and then it can be soldered back together. The jeweler must make a weld that is virtually invisible, and it must then be polished and smoothed so that no indication of the sizing is visible.
This method can easily be used for rings with a plain shank or band. Rings which are ornate or have a design which carries around the complete band will need to be rebuilt over the sizing. There is sometimes an area on ornate rings which has been left for resizing. This area, however, is usually used for making the ring larger instead of smaller.
Some rings have jewels all around the band or are channel style less than half way around the band, and may require the jeweler to remove the gems before sizing. This depends on the setting and pattern. For rings being made smaller, the diamonds or gems may be moved to balance the setting of the ring.
Making a ring larger
Increasing the size of a ring can be done two ways. When a ring needs to be made just slightly larger, sometimes a jeweler can stretch the ring to the desired size. The ring needs to be cut and an additional piece of the shank or band soldered in if the size increase is a half size or larger. If a jeweler needs to resize an ornately patterned ring, or one with jewels throughout the band, the sizing can pose a problem. The jeweler will discuss options with you which may include changing the setting.
Rings not to re-size
You should not try to re-size a ring which has channel set stones more than half way around the band. If the ring has an elaborate setting or certain types of gems, some of the stones may need to be removed and reset before the ring can be sized. If the ring is an antique or is an older white gold ring, there may be some discoloration around the repair area. It is not always possible for the jeweler to know the cause of the discoloration. Most jewelers will make every effort to minimize lines or discoloration on the ring. Usually it is only noticeable with the use of a magnifying glass. It is imperative that you discuss options with your jeweler.
Celtic rings with the design all the way around the band can be made slightly larger or smaller without distorting the pattern. Increases or decreases of a significant amount are usually not successful without distortion to the pattern.

It's raining, it's pouring, I'm stuck inside, and it's boring!
Is it raining cats and dogs? Are you going bonkers with the free time? Well then, have I got news for you! You can get rid of that boredom with these fun activities.
Here are a few ideas:
o Make up silly poems and act them out. You'll need paper, pencils, and a chest of old clothes. Old Halloween costumes would be awesome here!
Give everyone paper and pencils. Have everyone make up silly poems. It can be about anything they choose.
Ask for a volunteer, but tell them you can't say what their job will be yet. Wait until someone volunteers and then tell them they have to stand in front of the group and use the chest of clothes to act out the silly poems.
Now pick someone to read the poem as the volunteer acts out the poem.
When you're done, pick someone new and act out the other poems.
(You could also play this variation of the game: Show everyone the clothes in the chest and then have them create their poem around the clothes.)
o Play "Favorite Things" Game. You'll need paper and pencils.
Pick one person to name their favorite things. For example:
o Favorite color
o Favorite food
o Favorite drink
o Favorite place
o Favorite car
o Favorite animal
o Favorite smell
You can use as few or as many favorite things as you like. Make the list your own.
Write down the list of their favorite things as they name them.
Now create a story using their favorite things.
Read the story out loud.
You can do this for each person. Have fun with it!
o Bake cookies. Do you have a favorite cookie? Ask Mom or Dad to help you bake them. Make sure you have all the ingredients before you begin. Oh yes, and the milk! Don't forget the milk!
o Look at family photo albums. Take out the family photo albums and share memories. Find the cutest outfit you wore when you were a baby... the funniest face you ever made... the craziest hairdo you ever had. It's a lot of fun looking back at old pictures!
o Read a story. Pick out a book that everyone will enjoy. Let each person take a turn reading the story or pick one person to read. Reading is a good way to pass time and to learn about new places and things.
Rainy days don't have to be boring. Try some of these things and you'll soon forget you can't go outside and realize how much fun you're having inside!
