Wrist Sizes????

I work in fashion jewelry and we are shipping some bracelets out to a store that caters to plus size women.  I need to have one of my employees make the bracelets larger for these ladies, but I am unsure what size to make them. 

Is there anyone out here that can help me as I don't even know what size my wrist was before surgery.  The standard length of the bracelet is 7 inches, which seems to fit me perfectly.  Do I have them made 8 inches or 9 inches?  I'm clueless!!!

Please help!!!!!!!

I would think about 9 inches - although my wrist was never as fat as the body...lol...I have a good friend that is plus size and she has trouble getting bracelets and she wears a 9

Hi Kirsten,

An 8 inch use to fit me just barely with not much slack....I would maybe do half  the order 8 and half 9...since the fashion now is to wear multiple bracelets, this will enable them to do so.

Hi Kirsten,

I would say a 9 inch bracelet would be perfect! Remember you want the bracelets to be a little loose rather than a little too tight!

I wore about an 8 1/4 - 8 1/2" prior to surgery, now I wear about 6 3/4 - 7". So I'd say make them 8 1/2 - 9 1/2". I would love to see these bracelets! x0x0x0

I would go with the 9 inch.  While I never had the wrist issue, I know alot of ladies who have/do and the standard sizes 7 or 8 just don't fit.  I think a 9 is your best bet or even a bit bigger.  Can they be made smaller if necessary?

I would say 9.  I am big boned and I always need a 9 or 10, but we all know I'm an amazon!  LOL

Thanks everyone!  I have three bracelets to send so we are going to do them as 8", 8 1/2", and 9".  If someone needs it to be a bit larger, we can always have it sent back to us and we can adjust it.  It is a bracelet that should fit fairly snug around the wrist. 

Thanks again for your help.  One problem solved.....now I'm off to contact India and find out where our scarves that were supposed to be here YESTERDAY are!  Fire after fire to put out today!  UGH!
