How to resize / make a ring fit smaller using tape

Recently I figured out a trick to fix rings that are too big for small fingers. I've tried the rubber band tip before and it nearly cut off my circulation, so I was thrilled to find a new method that was easy, comfortable, and cheap. This isn't a permanent fix, which is nice if you like to switch up the fingers on which you wear your rings. Short demo:

Change the 360P to 1080P HD for best quality : )   Resized rings in action:

Lately I've been loving Forever 21 rings that come in numerical sizing (avoid the stretchy one-size-fits-all bands that are still too big). Their size 6 is more like a 5, and fits me almost perfectly. Currently I like this Oversized Beaded Ring in coral, and this Emerald Ring in light brown.

Nail polish in the video is ULTA "Chic Peek" ($5 or less) which is a glittery dark purple-gray. I heart it. These are frequently on BOGO, which works with their plentiful coupons good for online or in-store use.

Faux Fur Collar: H&M (similar here)
Ankle Booties: Calvin Klein (similar here, on sale & highly rated)

The H&M faux fur collar proves its versatility yet again. This weekend I dressed up my coat with the warm collar and a waist belt. I hope those interested in this coat were able to snag it with the 40% off sale (code MUSTHAVE, ends tonight).
