I won't be able to afford the Tiffany jewelry that I wanted to buy for my BM as gifts (just bought a new Saturn Ion-YAY!). And one of them doesn't like silver anyway so I guess I am better off.
But now I need to think of ideas for gifts. I was considering this for my best friend and MOH. It plays the theme to Titanic.
Maybe this for my Jr. BM?
But now I need a gift for my BM (FSIL), and my FG (MOH other daughter-she is 4). But I cannot spend more than $50 on each gift.
Please help!
TIA!

What about PJ's, slippers or a terrycloth robe? Pocketbooks to match their dresses... Lillian Vernon has a bunch of cute personalized stuff too.

What about a personalized Piggy bank from the mall, or flea market?? An initial ring for the jr. BM and the locket for the younger one? Good Luck!

I LOVE the idea of new pj's, a terry robe, and slippers. That is so cute! I also saw these personalized compact mirrors from Lillian Vernon that were cute. And also from LL Bean small tote bags with their initials which were so cute. Hope you can get some good ideas!

I got all my BMs a coach wristlet or makeup bag, they were about $40 each at the outlet.
I also got them each a silver frame that said good friends so i could send them a pic of me and with each them from the wedding.

Re: Need new suggestions for BM gifts...
I am giving my bridesmaids baskets - each with a different theme - filled with things they like. You could do a little basket for each girl -filled with things they might like. For instance, my Flower Girl loves the Disney Princesses, so I am getting her a little basket with a t-shirt, and a cd, and a toy from that line of goods. Sometimes a theme gift works well, b/c then people know you put thought into it. So, if you wanted to do pjs - you could do pjs, plus a eye mask, and a candle with a soothing aroma, stuff to make you sleepy. Hope that helps!
By the way, i like the presents that you posted. They look beautiful - I would love a gift like that!

What about Tiffany key rings? They are about $60 I think for the small ones. I am getting those for my 2 readers and singer.

I made each girl a basket with: jewelry for the day of pajamas fleece blanket FAO Schwartz stuffed bunnies aromatherapy packages (bath oils, lotions, soap, loufa, soothing teas, candles) picture frame photo album * as an extra gift for my MOH (sister), I'm going to take her to see a show in the city and we're going to stay over night
If you want to buy then jewelry, wait until Macy's has a sale, which is like every other week. I got the girls sets there that were originally $40 for a little more than half price.
