For fun I went to see how many size 4 rings QVC is now offering and only 2 rings showed up. Not so many years ago when I first found out that the Q (unlike HSN) offered size 4 rings I bought something like a dozen rings yearly for a couple of years. Now it will take an extraordinary ring for me to purchase it in another size for a different finger.

The Q is also offering fewer 16" necklaces. I was watching Silver Style earlier and they offered a pretty silver bead necklace in 3 sizes but the shortest was 18". I know Americans are said to be growing bigger but there still are a few tiny women who like pretty things.

Etsy is my new favorite as many vendors offer rings made to order including size 4. I'm currently looking for a silver band and am dithering among:
