Yeah, you'd have to stack it and that might eliminate the floppiness. I wonder if silversmiths can put some silver on a couple parts of the bangle, top and bottom to extend it? Maybe not b/c the bangle may be a cast piece but I bet there are wizards in silverwork that could fix it.

When this happens in rings and I don't feel like springing for sizing immediately, I have the jeweler put on a ring guard to tighten the ring. Or, as a permanent fix, I have the jeweler insert a small piece of gold or silver that thickens the shank at the bottom and so tightens it around the finger. The bracelet is silver, right? I double Paris would do it but you could take it to a local jeweler. IMO this works well in rings and I don't see why it couldn't work in a bracelet, a narrow bangle.

this is worth looking into, thanks!
