Bridal Shower ?, Bridesmaid gifts?

Hello Newlyweds!
I am planning SIL shower and have a question,
What, if anything, was given to tthe bridesmaids?
Traditionally the bridesmaids have been giving LLadro statues. (not sure if that is an Italian thing)
But we don't want to do this! The Bride asked me specifically not to do this.
So any suggestions?
TIA

My mom, who planned & gave my shower, gave the bridemaids make-up bags. As a bridesmaid I have received a make-up bag & a bridesmaid precious moments statue. I found the make-up bag to be very useful.

The favor at my bridal shower were oversized tea/coffee cups with coffee packets and Bailey's and chocolate dipped spoons. The cups everyone got were plain white except for the BM's and FG's cups which she got fancier ones of. But other than that, nothing special. They got gifts at the RD.
