How To Pick The Correct Waist Bead Size

If you know your accurate waist size, you must add one to two inches so the waist beads won’t fit tight! (Ex: If your waist is 34 inches, choose size 35 or 36 for your waist beads)

How To Measure Your Waist

1. Gather Your Materials: Obtain a flexible measuring tape. Alternatively, you can use a string or a piece of ribbon, and then measure it against a ruler.
2. Find the Right Spot: Locate your natural waistline, typically the narrowest part of your torso, above your belly button and below your ribcage. Stand straight and relax your stomach muscles. Ensure you measure on bare skin.
3. Wrap the Tape Around Your Waist: Begin by holding one end of the measuring tape at your belly button, then wrap it around your waistline. Ensure the tape runs parallel to the ground and fits snugly against your skin, neither too tight nor too loose.
4. Take the Measurement: Once the tape is wrapped around your waist, note where the end meets the rest of it. Ensure the tape remains level all the way around.
5. Record the Measurement: Record the measurement in inches, not centimeters.
6. Double-check for Accuracy: Measure your waist a couple of times for consistency. If using a string, measure it against a ruler for precision.
7. Determine Your Waist Bead Size: If, for example, you measured 34 inches, remember to add 1 or 2 inches. Thus, your waist bead size would be 35 or 36 inches.

Instructions on Tying Your Waist Beads

Tying waist beads around your waist is a straightforward process. Here are step-by-step instructions:

Materials you'll need:

1. Waist beads

2. A mirror (optional but helpful)

3. A comfortable length of string or thread (for tying)

Steps:

1. Stand in front of a mirror (if available): Using a mirror will help you ensure that the waist beads are positioned the way you want them.

2. Hold the waist beads: Pick up the strand of waist beads with both hands, ensuring that they are untangled and ready to be wrapped around your waist.

3. Find your waistline: Locate the area on your body where you want to wear the waist beads. This is typically the narrowest part of your waist, just above your hip bones.

4. Begin wrapping: Starting from one side, gently wrap the strand of waist beads around your waist, following your natural waistline. Keep the beads snug but not too tight; they should rest comfortably.

5. Overlap slightly: As you continue to wrap the beads around, allow them to overlap slightly. This helps to keep them in place.

6. Check the fit: Look in the mirror to ensure that the waist beads are even and at the desired tightness. Make any adjustments as needed.

7. Tie a secure knot: Once you're satisfied with the placement and fit of the waist beads, tie a secure knot at the end of the strand to keep them in place. You can use a double knot for added security.

8. Trim the excess string: If there is a long tail of string left after tying the knot, you can trim it to a comfortable length, leaving a small tail if you prefer.

9. Enjoy your waist beads: Your waist beads are now tied around your waist. You can wear them as a decorative and meaningful accessory.

Remember that the fit and placement of waist beads are a matter of personal preference. Some people like to wear them lower on the hips, while others prefer them higher on the waist. Adjust them to your comfort and style preferences, and enjoy their beauty and significance.
