Question 1

How durable are the wire rings?

Accepted Answer

Most of the rings are made out of enameled copper wire. That means  there’s a colored coat around a copper wire core. This coating is quite  durable as long as it isn’t brushing against something rough or  abrasive.

That being said, I would not recommend wearing these rings while doing a  job or hobby that is rough on your hands, nor would I recommend  sleeping with them on. Be gentle with your ring and it can easily last  for years! :)

Question 2

Can I get my ring wet?

Accepted Answer

Gentle rinsing with soap and water, or getting caught in the rain should  not hurt the rings. However showering or bathing with them on is not  recommended. The less wear and tear the better!

Question 3

How adjustable are the rings?

Accepted Answer

Copper is a very flexible metal, so you should be able to effortlessly adjust the rings by hand- no special tools needed!

If no size is mentioned in the order notes, I make my rings around a  size 7. Some of my designs are more adjustable than others, but  generally you should be able to make the ring fit 2 sizes bigger or  smaller. So a size 7 ring should be able to accommodate between a size  5-9 (US ring size).

I definitely recommend mentioning your size if you know it! I make all  of them to order, so if you have a size 10, I can make my design without  you having to do much adjusting. :)

Question 4

How do I make my ring bigger/smaller?

Accepted Answer

If you find the ring is too small, you can make it larger by pulling the  sides out. Hold the ring where the wire wrap is on the sides and gently  pull them away from each other to open the design a bit.

If the ring is too big, put it on the finger you want it to fit and and  gently squeeze it closer together. Do this by putting pressure against  the band, or the wire wrapping on the sides. Just be careful not to  squeeze it too tight against your skin because you might bend it funny  when you want to take it off. You want it just snug enough so it won’t  fall off your finger. :)

Question 5

Help, the wires are out of place!

Accepted Answer

No worries! You can always reference the images in the shop to see how  the design is supposed to look. If you find the ends running into each  other or overlapping, you can push one end of the design up and one down  with the pad of your thumb, but make sure you're still wearing it while  you do to keep the ring's round shape.

If some of the loops are sticking up oddly, just press them down, but  again, do this while you're wearing it to keep the ring's shape.

If you’re having trouble restoring the shape of your ring, feel free to  send me a message and I’d be happy to help guide you through it.

Question 6

Help, the color is starting to chip off!

Accepted Answer

While the color coating on the wires is quite durable, chipping can  still happen after heavy use, or even one rough mishap. Some colors are  more prone to chipping than others, and though the manufacturing of the  wires is beyond my control, I do inspect each ring to make sure there  are no flaws. Unfortunately there isn’t much that can be done once the  color comes off, so please message me if you’re experiencing any  chipping within 14 days of receiving your ring. I’d be more than happy  to make it right.

As long as you’re good and gentle to your rings, they should last a long time! :)

Question 7

Can you make a custom ring of [this character]?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely!  And it doesn’t have to be a character either. General shapes, animals,  pride flags, you name it, I’d be happy to help create it. Feel free to  message me directly for details, or check out my Request A Character  listing in the shop.

I am also open to suggestions for ideas of other shows/fandoms to make rings for! :)
