Re: My BM gifts

I think the little bags you picked out are great! I think I may steal your idea. (LOL) The gift you give your girls doesn't have to be expensive just thoughtful what if you put a personal note in each one of them or you could put a gift certificate in each one of them for a manicure and pedicure you can get them cheap at Angel Tips in Lindenhurst you can get it for $10 for both. Also keep in mind if you are on a very tight budget (like myself) the people in your wedding are aware of it they are the ones closest to you! Good Luck!

Very Cute!! And yes, I think it's enough of a gift! I agree with mrsmerri -- you could put a cute little note in each one.

I think they are great. If you wanted to add just a little something, I agree with the idea of a g.c. for a manicure and pedicure.

Re: My BM gifts

I really like them and I think they are a great gift. Your girls know how much of a budget you are on, they won't even think about it.

I think they are cute. You may also want to check out sarahmichelledesigns.com. I am probably going to get each of my girls a custom-made cosmetic bag with either their initial on it or their first name. You can pick a different fabric for each girl to match their personality! And, if you get 5 or more- she will take off 20% which brings the price to $14.40. You could even add some fun things inside like mints, lip gloss, etc. I've been emailing with Michelle (the owner) and she has been extremely nice and helpful!

Re: My BM gifts

Mindy, I really like that idea, the custom made makeup bags with their initials on them. Let me know how that it works out.

Re: My BM gifts

That's a great gift- as a bridesmaid, I never expected a gift and am usually just amazed that the bride had time to think of something with everything else going on.

And those bags look like they cost more than $15 anway! The initial is a great, personal touch.

That make -up bag is a great idea too!

Re: My BM gifts

no..I did a search for stores at lizclaiborne.com and I went the 2 Macy's and a Lord and Taylor to get all the letters that I needed....all in 2 days. Not bad, huh?
