Stretch Ring! I made it!

To see HOW I made it, click HERE!  

Last Christmas my college aged daughter, Sarah, asked for a "Stretch Ring".  I had no idea what it was.  I looked on Amazon.com and found them.  They are rings for your fingers (and toes) that S-T-R-E-T-C-H over your finger instead of fitting a hard ring around them.

When I bought her the rings for Christmas, I put "making my own stretch ring" on my to-do list.  Guess what?  I finally took the time to do it!



These are images of 2 of the rings I found on Amazon.com and bought for my daughter:

Two Tone Heart Stretch Fashion Ring
A two-tone silvertone/gold heart (above), and this silvertone-turquoise ring:Silvertone Turquoise Stretch Fashion Ring
They come in all styles...  here is another one that I did NOT buy, but you can see how it is made when you look a these cultured-pearl double strand rings:
White, Black and Pink Freshwater Cultured Pearl Two-Row Stretch Ring with Sterling Silver Beads, Set of 3
And here is MINE!  Yes, I made this TONIGHT!


I know my photos are awful, but I just couldn't wait to post them and I have a very long day tomorrow!

On Tuesday I'll fill you in about my adventure in making this little beauty.  In the meantime,

I hope you get the chance to be creative today!

  1. Great job! I didn't know you made jewelry. If you need supplies let me know I have tons! and I don't do it anymore.
