Need SMALL bridesmaid gift idea

I am pretty much at my limit for what I wanted to spend on my bridal party gifts... I could technically spend another $5 or so on each... any ideas? I'd rather not get into jewelry at all.

Also, so far my sister (MOH) has the same stuff as everyone else. What could l get for her that would make her gift a little more special?

So far what I got...

Personalized tote bag
Pashmina
Hinged picture frame (one side will have a poem, the other will be a pic of me and them from the wedding)
Bridesmaid/MOH t-shirt (still have to make)

Thanks as always for your help!

Re: Need SMALL bridesmaid gift idea

I was in same situation and added a "Bridesmaids survival kit" for each of the girls. It includes: disposable camera, bandaids, mints, nail file, lip gloss, chapstick, mirror, lotion, and tissues. (i think that's it?) There's a cute poem that goes along with it which is below for your reference. Hope it helps!

This Bridesmaid Survival Kit was made just to say,
I’m thrilled you’re beside me on my wedding day!
Lotion so your hands will never feel dry,
A packet of tissues in case you should cry.
Chapstick and lipgloss to care for your smile,
If a nail should break, you’ll be set with a file!
A mirror to check out your beautiful grin,
Fresh mints for you are inside the tin!
Band-Aids in case your shoes aren’t feeling okay,
A camera for capturing the fun of the day!
All packed up inside this purse just for you,
To thank you so much for all that you do!
This kit was created so that you can see,
How much that you mean to the bride-to-be.

Re: Need SMALL bridesmaid gift idea

I think that is really nice as it is for the BM gifts and for the MOH maybe a picture frame.

Re: Need SMALL bridesmaid gift idea

how about Revlon or Loreal lipgloss?

sometimes Ulta has them on sale - but 1 get 1 free. They have a million different kind to choose from.
