Over 10,000 Sales on Etsy! Conducting a Sale on the Site.
In 2010 I started making and selling jewelry. I went full-time in 2012, and in April 2014 I opened an etsy shop. After a few months of a few sales each month I was determined to improve so after a lot of hard work the sales started coming in. Now not quite 2 years later I just celebrated my 10,000th sale yesterday! We have sold in all 50 states and 38 countries around the world. I would like to say thank you to each and every one of my customers. It could not have happened if not for you. To show my appreciation for the entire week everything is 10% off!

Ring Resizing and Jewelry Repair
It's happened to us all: we go into a jewelry store to purchase a ring for ourselves or significant other only to find out further into our years that it no longer fits. What to do?
The solution is resizing. Making a ring smaller is a fairly easy process. It involves cutting a small portion of the band and joining the pieces back together again. After the shape is restored the ring is soldered back together, and then polished.
Increasing the size is a little more difficult. This involves stretching and possibly adding pieces of the metal to enlarge it.
What about the cost you may ask? That depends on numerous factors. Resizing involving cutting costs generally $25-$100 for silver or reducing a gold ring.
Enlarging a gold ring with added metal could run $100-$250 depending on how large it is. Mens rings are genuinely more hefty and cost more than thin dainty rings.
There are certain types of rings that are hard to or impossible to resize. Rings that have a continuous setting of gemstones around the band are very tough to resize. Attempting to do so has the potential to do damage to the stones. So breathe a sigh of relief whether to big or too small the size of your ring can be corrected. And we would be more than happy to do so.
