1.  You want to hold your hand as if you were putting on a bangle, bringing all of your fingers together with you thumb and little finger touching.
2.  Next, measure around the hand at the widest point using a tape measure or a strip of paper.  Make sure to pull them snug against your skin.  On the paper, mark with a pen and measure it with a ruler.  This is the circumference of your hand.
3.  Use the chart to determine the diameter of your hand with the measurement you just took.  Choose a bangle that's at least 1/4 inch larger in diameter that the diameter measurement of your hand.


Converting Circumference to Diameter
*  7-1/2 inches equals approximately 2-3/8 inches in diameter - small
*  8-1/4 inches equals approximately 2-5/8 inches in diameter - medium
*  8-5/8 inches equals approximately 2-3/4 inches in diameter - large

If you know your size refer to the charts below to get the length/circumference and then you can get the inside diameter from the chart above.
