Since Im a wristlet fanatic and my BM's always complement them, I though that it would a perfect gift for them. Im thinking of giving them each a different either Dooney & Burke or Coach wristlet with a $100 gift certificate to Sephora.
What do you think? Do you think that the gift certificate is impersonal? I wouldnt want to stuff the wristlets with things that they wont use either...
Here is a pic of the Dooney wristlet that I want to give them and a pic of the Coach wristlet.
I love the idea! Especially the color b/c it can go with everything anyone has!
Kuddos!
ETA: IMO - I didn't want to give my BM's gift certificates b/c I do think they're a little impersonal. I sent out an email survey asking them what their favorite color, perfume, lipstick, lotion, etc were, and that's what I plan on stuffing their bags with.
On the flip-side, if I receive a gift certificate, I'm ecstatic and don't think it's impersonal....I guess I'm just strange eh?

I hear ya...I mean I kind of know what they like...I guess maybe I should put a little more energy into it and stuff the wristlets as opposed to giving them a gift certificate...I guess I can stuff it with an engraved compact mirror or their favorite perfume etc...

I'm doing Coach makeup cases, a monogrammed compact mirror, earrings to wear day of, and then something very personal for each girl (haven't figured that part out yet). Love the wristlet and gift certificate idea!

I love the wristlest. I bought one for my Matron of Honor at Coach at the outlets. I think $50 bucks per girl is a good amt. to spend.

I love it and I think that is very generous of you. Iwould rather give them something that they will enjoy vs something they will never use. I have been a bridemaid a couple of times and most of the stuff, I never use.

I think its a great idea and I LOVE the idea of the Sephoras GC...not impersonal at all...let them buy what they need when they need it...JMO
