Bridesmaids gifts?

I've got ten bridesmaids, and I'm having a REALLY hard time trying to figure out what to get them...I really can't afford to go to crazy but I want them to have something special...any ideas? Also, they all have vastly different tastes and personalities...please help!

Well, something that I've seen many girls do is day of jewelry. You still have some time to shop around, collect coupons (I hear Kohls has some really nice jewelry for a good price). If you don't think they'll all like matching jewelry, you can get different styles tha will still work with their dresses, and hopefully they can wear it in the future. My girlfriend had three girls plus her three brothers (and her husbands six guys). I was her MOH. She got me a sterling silver best friends necklace from red envelope (it's our special gift place) and the first Twilight book. She also had wrote and note to me because ever since we became friends in college we hand wrote letters to each other. The book was kind of an inside joke. I had refused to read it, and actually tried two or three times and just couldn't get into it. She was so hooked on the series that she insisted I read it and bought it for me. Her other two girls were already as obsessed as she was so she got them the soundtrack to the first movie. For her, it wasn't about the bling, but about something special and meaningful that she could give her special people. I still haven time, and haven't even invited my brodal party yet, but I have no clue what I'm going to do for them when the time comes. Good luck.

I'm doing Onyx & Diamond earrings, purchased black satin robes so they can wear the day of to get ready in (plus, they'll have it from now on) and also paying for them to get their hair done.

How many girls do you have? I want to pay for my girls' hair for sure, but I have 8 girls and it's going to be $75 per girl, I think. I don't want that to be the only thing I get them so I'm trying to decide what else I can get!

I havent fully decided but I am thinking about paying for either hair or make-up (I think I am going to let them pick which they want to get b/c some i think will want the make-up and others the hair). I think I am also going to get each girl a cute set of PJs from victorias secret and a $50 gift card to a store (maybe nordstrom, but I might do different stores for different girls- ex. my friend really likes working out so i met get her one to lululemon, etc).

You can get a good deal on really anything from lord and Taylor, bloomies or Macy's when it's friends and family time :)

I was thinking of making my girls a bridesmaid survival kit . I was thinking of putting in tide to go, things to make their shoes comfy, a gift certificate to get their nails done, breath mints, aspirin, tissues, high heel protectors (things that stop your shoes from sinking in the grass), wisps, bobby pins..and a bunch of other stuff.

I was Gioing to pick out my bridesmaids jewels but I am telling them to pick out their own..just has to be pearls with silver bling to it. Tink it might be cute to see everyone in their own style

Ooh very true! My mom got me hooked on L&T before 'my time'. While every girl in high school was shopping at Estelle's for prom, I got my dress at L&T. No worrying about whether someone will be wearing my dress that night. Couldn't say that for other girls though.
