Nor me but somebody else was asking where to get those rings from, hope he sees this init?
I never tried them and think I might like to one day, I see he does aerials too but I wouldn't bother with those.

Long time since I have been on the site as I have been moving from Spain to N.I. workshop and all. I have bought several bangles and rings from Wild Wood Design. Bangles a pleasure to make, but rings not so easy as they are small and fiddly particular in finishing.

David, I would be very keen to share postage costs with you if you were going to order anything from him. Been wanting to try his bracelets and rings for a long while.

PM me if you're interested.

I need a new wedding ring as mine got a bit small for my podgy fingers & had to cut it off.
Really wouldn't mind trying these out, let me know if you are going to order & I'll chip in too

You could turn your old one into a centreband for a nice pen.

Plenty of interest in the bangle and rings ... I'll start a new thread when I get organised and we can sort out how many and what sizes everyone wants ... there's discount for larger order, so that's a bonus

From the experiences of so many people if you wish to make some sort of living from bangles they are absolutely size dependant for customers involving lots of sizing and excess stock requiring quite an amount of money. Just how you determine the size is crucial for success. The same applies to rings. My observation with bangles they are worn in a variety of way in odd positions on arms as well. I do hope you succeed guys.
