wedding ring scare

[frualeydis]

I just found that my wedding ring was missing! I knew I had worn it when I left work but now it wasn't on my finger. I checked in the bathroom first, to see if I had taken it off while rinsing Maja's diaper, which I never do, but it could have been an exception. Then I looked in the cupboard with trims, ribbons etc. which I had been searching for some gold trim (that I couldn't find) and there, in one drawer it was. It had fallen off my finger without me noticing! It has definitely gotten too big for me. I wonder if one could go to a goldsmith and make it smaller. I assume that if they could it would ruin the engraving, but I really have to check, because this is making me nervous.

Most jewlers should be able to resize it. Even if that means adding metal to the ring to make it smaller.

Eep! Don't want to lose your ring. A friend of mine lost a lot of weight and had to tie her wedding and engagement rings to the wristwatch for fear of losing them. At least that way you can still wear it until you can get that taken care of.

Maybe get a smaller ring to wear outside it? At least until you know what size you'll end up with. I think my aunt changed her rings several times before she realised her fingers are bigger in the summer...

There are "ring size reducers" you can get to put inside your ring (example: http://www.comfees.com/risirestno10.html), but Monika's suggestion is excellent.

Thank goodness you found it. That would have been heartwrenching.

Hun er jo snart guldsmed, og vet helt sikkert sånn. Det kan hende at det går an å fikse og ikke ødelegge graveringen totalt.
