Maybe it’s hot out. Maybe you wore your ring when you shouldn’t have. (Swollen fingers from working out, anyone?) Maybe you tried on a friend's ring - a friend whose fingers are slightly smaller than yours.
Now you can’t get that ring off! Good news: we have a couple tricks that will get that ring off in no time.
Line up a bunch of jewelry from afar and the most basic distinction you can make is between silver and gold.
While deciding broadly between these two hues is mostly a matter of style and preference, choosing an exact type of metal jewelry is a bit more involved.
Buying a new piece of jewelry is exciting. You get lost in the sparkle and admire the way it graces your finger or lays just right across your collarbone.
You might think beyond the initial excitement to the cost of the piece, considering it’s likely to be a decent investment. But do you think any farther ahead than that?
Think about all the jewelry you own. Maybe you only have one high-value piece you consider worth insuring, like an engagement ring. The rest might be worth less than $500 apiece. No big deal, right?
We don’t claim to be math experts, but that charm bracelet you’ve been adding to over the years? That baby could be worth a couple grand by the time you complete it.
