So what happens when I buy rings? Well, I either buy the ones that are adjustable or I clench my fist tightly when I wear the non-adjustable ones out. The latter doesn't always work because sometimes I forget about the ring I am wearing and they fall out as I wave goodbye to my friends after an outing. =_=
A few weeks ago, I bought this ring from Sportsgirl during a sale. It was an 'S' but it was still slightly loose on my finger. I couldn't take it anymore. So, I took a bit of my wire, pulled out my pliers, and began to wrap short lengths of wire around the ring. I guess this looks all right for this design of the ring because it's supposed to look.... grunge? I wouldn't use this method for more feminine designs.
Now this ring fits really snugly on my finger and I LOVE IT! :D

this is a brilliant idea. i used to put surgical tape at the back of my rings... but that was SUPER unglam..
your idea is much better! :)
So clever! Reminds me of once when I was young I went through a box of my mom's old stuff and found my dad's class ring. He has huge fingers and hers were really small so she had wound a bunch of tape around the bottom to resize it. Apparently this was pretty common among her classmates.
I don't think you would lose the plastic pieces too easily because they fit pretty snugly, but if you wanted to experiment you could DIY a plastic ring sizer with a little snip of like fish tank tubing.
