Sizing question please for the Jadies - Is tracing the inner diameter of a bangle fairly accurate? I've read online that it is accurate but wanted your opinion. For those who are certain of the size of a particular bangle, could you please trace on paper and measure when you have a moment. I want to see if the tracing method does show the actual measurement. No rush but if someone could do this I would appreciate it. Problem with my bangles is I don't have a true confirmation of size which I believe would require calipers. When I trace, they seem to range from 49 mm - 52 mm but again that is just me tracing. Thanks Jadies 
Oooooh pretty! Hope your mom loves this!
Also an early Mother's Day wish to you too NYC P and to all the Jadie Mommies here

It's best to get a pair of calipers, they are not expensive! But I can trace for you tomorrow 🤓

I've never tried this but I think it would work more accords tell for a D shape which has a flat interior than a princess. I think the princess may be prone to error because if your pencil or pen is not perfectly perpendicular, it can trace at a different point than the smallest part. Hope I'm explaining myself appropriately.
No I get what you are saying - thanks
My black d is 50 and the lavender is 52 mm. Maybe I will not bother taking into consideration the princess ones as this method is probably not too accurate.

Oops I see my iphone has "autocorrected" the word "accurately"

The best gifts come from the heart!

Thank you NYC P! Actually I'm looking to get a bike so I can go bike riding with my hubby and sons. Boys have always rode their bikes but recently hubby is into it too and so to join in the fun, I am looking to get a bike too
This will be my mother's day present if I can get it in time. Now if I had girls I could get matching bangles or something but instead I will go bike riding lol!
You should be able to untie the middle knot. My mom has a heavy jade pendant that was on a cord like that and it untied the first day she wore it.
