5 out of 5 starsI was very intrigued by the design of this nose ring. I’ve had my nose pierced for 10+ years and have tried nearly every variation. The one pet peeve I have with other nose rings is that I have to adjust them often, which makes me feel people think I’m picking my nose LOL.
This nose ring is perfect! I’ve had it in for a week and I haven’t had to adjust it AT ALL! It stays in place so well. I will be ordering more. ❤️❤️❤️ -

5 out of 5 starsI bought this item because I was developing a keloid on my nose after I got it pierced. The titanium nose ring helped it heal and it’s almost complexity gone!

5 out of 5 starsLove all the earrings I ordered. I now have three pair and they are all so cute (and comfortable!). The first pair I ordered were not exactly what I expected, and I reached out and the customer service was INCREDIBLE. I will look here first for anything I want in the future.

About thebeadedlily
Handcrafted jewelry is collaborative and connective. It connects the maker of the beads, with the maker of the piece, with the person who chooses that piece to say something about themselves, even through time and space.
thebeadedlily is a play on the phrase 'guild the lily', meaning 'to adorn unnecessarily' (isn't all adornment unnecessary? and yet somehow vital to our mental well-being?) refers to my favorite medium-- beads-- and alludes to my personal identity in the form of my middle name.
-Stringing is my first love and is all about the beads.
-Beadweaving is my labor intensive celebration of the art of creating and wearing jewelry.
-Wirework is my exploration of the most ancient forms of jewelry.

Frequently asked questions
Returns and Exchanges
Anything that fits into a piercing is an intimate item. Pieces can be clearly seen through the baggie, so if you realize that the wrong size was ordered BEFORE the baggie seal is broken and the piece is tried on the item is still eligible for return/exchange, otherwise it is NOT.
So much of my work is custom and personalized, but as long as it's something that I offer in my shop, as opposed to something that we designed together, it's still eligible for return/exchange. If you're unsure if something qualifies, please don't hesitate to ask.
PLEASE contact me before shipping items back. I will not process returns or exchanges if I am not contacted. I will not process returns or exchanges for damaged or worn items.
Cancellations
As long as your item hasn't shipped I'll gladly cancel it. Once it's in the mail it becomes a return as opposed to a cancellation.
Damaged or Incorrect Items
If something is wrong about the piece you receive, please send me a photo as soon as possible so I can get it straight for you.

Sizing details-- Gauges
The thinnest gauge I work with is 28g and is almost threadlike.
26g and 24g which are also very delicate.
22g and 20g are about the size of most earring post or hoops that you would find in a typical jewelry display.
18g is slightly thicker and what we're normally pierced with. It may be uncomfortably snug in an ear lobe for just a bit. It's used for cartilage piercings and nostril jewelry.
16g is the beginning of gauged jewelry and fairly typical for cart and nose piercings.
14g is often purchased for septums and statement pieces.
I also often have 12g and 10g in stock. Thicker gauges may be available via special order.
Your piercer can tell you your gauge if you're unsure.
Sizing details-- Hoop Diameters
The most popular inner diameters for nose hoops, helix or cartilage, tragus and rook rings are 8mm, 9mm and 10mm.
Conch rings start at 10mm id.
Measure three times or get help, preferably using a millimeter ruler, for accuracy. Measure a piece of jewelry that fits well, from inner wall to inner wall across the widest point. Or measure the distance from the edge of your piercing to the edge of your piercing or the relevant body part. For a looser fit add a millimeter.
Loose is better than tight, which can hurt. I can size your jewelry down for the cost of shipping if your hoop is too large, but I can't do much about jewelry that is too snug.
