Shopping for Rosary Bracelets That Fit
Where to Start
It starts with an accurate measurement. If you like the fit of your favourite bracelet, hold your arm up and measure that spot on your arm.
You can measure it with a soft measuring tape. If you don’t have one, you can wrap a piece of string or ribbon around your wrist. Then, you can measure it against a ruler.
Does the Fit Really Matter?
A comfortable fit is better for the bracelet. That way, you won’t stress the connections, and wearing it can be more enjoyable. It shouldn’t be so tight that it leaves indents on the skin. If it is too loose, it will fall off or slide up too high on your arm.
Some prefer to wear a bracelet with a watch. Then, the fit can vary.
Will Stretch Bracelets Fit Any Size?
A stretch bracelet should fit so that it stretches to slide over your hand. Then, it should relax on your wrist without continued stretching.
Adjustable Bracelet Designs
Rosary Bracelets with a sliding knot will fit a wider range of sizes. They open out to slide over the hand and then you can pull the strands tighter until the fit is comfortable.
Bracelets with Built-in Sizes
Some rosary bracelets have a clasp that you can hook onto different loops or a length of extender chain. That way different sizes are built right into the design.
Bangle Designs
Our Memory Wire Rosary Bracelets fit like a bangle. The finished size varies with the bead size. The smaller the beads, the larger the fit because they don’t fill in as much of the wrist size inside of the bracelet.
Custom Orders
We can custom-make a rosary bracelet to fit a specific size within the limits of the design. It is possible as long as we can add or take away chain length or spacer beads without compromising the rosary layout.
Bracelet Extenders
A bracelet extender is a length of chain that attaches to any loop and clasp bracelet. We can customize it to add one inch or more to your bracelet length. For example, a First Communion Rosary Bracelet can grow with your child. Click to learn more.
