Introduction

Jewelry is easily one of the most popular presents of all time. Whether the gift is for a birthday, Christmas or just because you love your wife, jewelry is always the answer. To buy jewelry for your wife, follow these easy instructions, and you will dazzle her will your thoughtful gift.

Step One
Get a feel for your wife’s style. Take a few minutes to look at the jewelry she currently owns. Make sure she is not around when you do it, of course, or she will get suspicious.

Step Two
Choose a reputable jeweler. Get recommendations from family, friends and coworkers, or go where you bought your wedding rings.

Step Three
Figure out roughly how much you want to spend. Jewelers will often ask your price range right away, so it is good to have a figure in your head.

Step Four
Look carefully at all the selections, and try to find something that resembles the jewelry she already owns, has always wanted or will remind her of a special memory the two of you share.

Step Five
Purchase the piece of jewelry that you think she will like most. Nothing makes a gift more special than the thought you put behind it, so take your time and choose carefully.

Step Six
Buy a card and have the present wrapped. These small touches will make a difference to your wife.

Overall Tips & Warnings

• Make sure the piece you buy her corresponds with her style. If she wears mostly platinum, don’t buy her yellow gold. Chances are she owns more platinum because she prefers it.
• Check out the jewelry store with the Better Business Bureau before you go. They will inform you of any issues that have occurred within the past year and how the company handled them.
• If you are buying your wife a ring, make sure to find out her ring size before you go to the store. If you can, take one of her rings with you, but make sure she will not notice. If you can’t do that, use a piece of string to measure the circumference of the ring, and bring that with you.
• Don’t forget to get a receipt, and make sure the piece of jewelry is returnable.
• Don’t let salespeople talk you into something you don’t want. Firmly tell them no, and walk out if they continue to pressure you.
• Not all rings can be sized.
