Wedding Ring Issues?

I haven't come across a thread like this yet, so I was wondering what others have done to keep their rings on their fingers during the "inbetween" stage (post surgery, yet no where near goal). My ring has been slipping off my finger, there really isn't anything holding it in place. I don't want to go without it, and I don't want to pay for a jeweler to resize it, when in a few months the potential is there that it will need to be resized again. Any good quality products, or tips anyone can recommend? I've googled different products but everything just has such negative reviews, I don't want to spend money on something that doesn't work.

Thank you

    If you take the ring to the jewlers they can put a ring guard in it. They have some that are not permanent. They are fairly inexpensive too maybe 10 bucks at the most.

  • I'm planning on putting mine on a nice chain- that way it's super safe and when u get it resized I still have a bonus nice neck chain- Go on- spoil yourself!!!

Great question' date=' I have been struggling with this as well. I have tried the plastic ring sizer from walmart..no go. Totally uncomfortable then I used a bandaid wrapped around. Figured next would be yarn. I just wash my hands a lot and so I can see that getting funky very quickly.... Maybe our sleeve friends have some ideas![/quote']

Use needlepoint yarn and coat it a few times with clear nail polish. That's what I used to do when I wore my boyfriends high school class ring. The polish makes a nice Water proof seal.

moved mine to middle finger for now will go from there. where another ring on right hand it just spins now but not big enough for other finger just yet

My hubby wrapped black electrical tape around the underside of my ring. He wanted to take it to get resized but im frugal and don't want to keep taking it to jewelers everytime it gets too large.

I wear mine on a sterling chain around my neck.
