🌙 How to Measure Yourself for Gemstone Bracelets, Anklets, and Necklaces

There’s nothing quite like finding a piece of handmade jewelry that feels meant for you — one that fits comfortably, sits beautifully, and radiates your energy.

Since every piece at Curls Curves Crystals is handcrafted to celebrate your curves, it’s important to know your perfect size before you order. ✨

Here’s your simple, step-by-step guide to measuring yourself for gemstone bracelets, anklets, and necklaces — so your piece fits like it was made just for you (because it was 💜).

⸻

💎 How to Measure for Bracelets

Your bracelet should sit comfortably on your wrist — not too tight, not too loose — allowing the gemstones to rest naturally against your skin.

✨ What You’ll Need

• A flexible measuring tape or a piece of string and a ruler.

🌙 Steps:

1. Wrap the tape (or string) around your wrist just below the wrist bone — where you’d normally wear your bracelet.

2. Mark the point where it overlaps.

3. Note the measurement in inches.

4. Add a little extra depending on your fit preference:

• Snug fit: add ¼ inch

• Comfort fit: add ½ inch

• Loose fit: add ¾ inch

💫 Example: If your wrist measures 6 inches, choose a 6.5” bracelet for the perfect fit.

⸻

🌸 How to Measure for Anklets

Anklets bring out that free-spirited, boho goddess vibe — and they look best when they move naturally as you walk.

✨ Steps:

1. Measure just above your ankle bone, where the anklet will rest.

2. Add ½ inch for a comfortable fit, or ¾ inch for a looser, more relaxed style.

🌿 Pro Tip: If you plan to wear your anklet with heels or sandals, measure while standing for the most accurate fit.

⸻

🌙 How to Measure for Necklaces

Necklaces create the focal point of your look — whether you love a choker layered with crystals or a longer pendant for grounding energy.

✨ Steps:

1. Use a soft tape or string, wrap it around your neck at your desired length, and note where it meets.

2. Compare to standard necklace lengths:

• 14–16” → Choker (sits close to the neck)

• 18” → Classic length (rests at the collarbone)

• 20–22” → Mid-length (just below the collarbone)

• 24”+ → Long pendant or layering piece

🌸 Layering Tip: Combine a 16” choker with an 18” or 20” piece for that effortless boho-luxe stack.

💎 How to Choose the Right Gemstone Jewelry for You

🌙 Find the crystal that speaks to your soul.

Gemstones are more than just beautiful — they carry energy, emotion, and meaning. Each stone forms deep within the earth over thousands of years, holding a unique vibration that aligns with different parts of our spirit.

At Curls Curves Crystals, every piece is handcrafted to help you connect with that energy — to remind you of your strength, intuition, and inner magic. Whether you’re drawn to crystals for their healing properties or simply their beauty, choosing the right gemstone for yourself is an intuitive and empowering experience.

⸻

🔮 1. Listen to What You’re Drawn To

Before reading any descriptions or meanings, take a moment to simply feel which gemstones catch your eye. Do you notice yourself drawn to certain colors, textures, or shapes?

That pull is your intuition speaking. Your energy naturally recognizes what it needs most — whether it’s calm, clarity, or courage.

✨ Trust your first attraction. It’s often the crystal calling to you.

⸻

🌸 2. Choose by Intention or Energy

If you’re seeking support in a specific area of your life, gemstones can act as gentle reminders of that intention.

Here are a few beautiful options to guide your choice:

💫 Pro Tip: Set an intention when you wear your gemstone jewelry — a quiet affirmation that reminds you why you chose it.

⸻

🌿 3. Match Gemstones to Your Chakras

If you’re into energy alignment, you can also choose gemstones that correspond to your chakras:

• Root Chakra (Red/Black) → Grounding & stability → Red Jasper, Black Tourmaline

• Sacral Chakra (Orange) → Creativity & confidence → Carnelian, Sunstone

• Solar Plexus (Yellow) → Empowerment & self-worth → Citrine, Tiger’s Eye

• Heart Chakra (Green/Pink) → Love & healing → Rose Quartz, Green Aventurine

• Throat Chakra (Blue) → Communication & truth → Blue Lace Agate, Aquamarine

• Third Eye (Indigo) → Intuition & insight → Lapis Lazuli, Sodalite

• Crown Chakra (Violet/White) → Spiritual connection → Amethyst, Clear Quartz

⸻

✨ 4. Choose Based on Color Energy

Color itself carries vibration and emotion. If you love color harmony, use these tones to guide your gemstone picks:

• 💜 Purples → Calm, spiritual connection, wisdom

• 💗 Pinks → Love, softness, self-compassion

• 💚 Greens → Healing, growth, renewal

• 💛 Yellows → Confidence, creativity, joy

• 🖤 Blacks → Protection, strength, grounding

• 🤍 Whites/Clears → Clarity, cleansing, higher guidance

⸻

🌙 5. Let Your Jewelry Tell Your Story

Your jewelry is an expression of you — your journey, your energy, and your essence.

The gemstones you choose today might not be the ones you’re drawn to a year from now, and that’s okay. As you grow and evolve, your energy shifts — and so will the crystals that resonate with you.

That’s the beauty of it. ✨

⸻

💎 Final Thoughts

When choosing gemstone jewelry, there’s no “wrong” crystal — only what feels right in your heart. Whether it’s the soothing calm of Amethyst or the fiery spark of Carnelian, each gemstone you wear becomes a mirror of your spirit.

At Curls Curves Crystals, every piece is made to celebrate your curves, your energy, and your confidence.

Wear what speaks to your soul — and let your jewelry become your daily reminder of the magic within you.
