    Thank you so so much for this video. I have tried measuring myself to buy clothes online, but it's confusing when you aren't shaped like the models. This is so clear. Thank you. Also never thought about putting two tape measures together!!

      It is our absolute pleasure!! Christina really breaks it down and takes something that can be VERY confusing, VERY easy to understand. Thank you for watching! 💜

    It would help if you were able to zoom in when doing the measuring? If was difficult to see the tape which was not stretched out.

    Woow!!thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.I have a question please...🙏🙏🙏...how do i place 4.8" on my measuring tape?Is it after 41/2" or before it?I hope you understand my question?Thank you...😊

    • @christinawellsdesigns
      @christinawellsdesigns  Před rokem +1

      We think we understand! It should be after! 4.5 would be 4 1/2 so 4.8 would be between 4 1/2 and 5! Hope this helps 💜💜💜

      Hi Edmundo! This is Christina - does your measuring tape have centimeters on the other side?

      @@edmundaddo2988 Ok what you can do is use 7mm which is equal to 5/16 inches. Or you can just use 1/4 inch if that is easier. I hope this helps!
