I'm attending a bridal shower, and would like to add some cute/funny things into the wishing well... I'd like to get something unique/original. Any suggestions?
Household items aren't a good choice, because the couple live together already, and have everything set up.

A well for wishes... It's a well that appear in showers (bridal, baby, etc) where guests put in small items that weren't on the registry (household items, lingerie, pacifiers, baby bottles, etc).

Hmmm.... so it seems like the popular choice would be sexual gifts, huh?

I put it in for my SIL's wishing well. I knew she wasnt having anything like that going on outwardly at the shower (I was told by her MOH NOT to buy her any lingerie - i ended up giving her the lingerie afterwards at her house rather than at the shower) But since she didnt open up the wishing well gifts there - it was perfect - and of course she has no clue who gave it to her since i didnt put my name on it. Her fiance gave my husband and I handcuffs at our wedding (during his toast ) so i gave it right back to them in the honeymoon bag that i made for them.
I just thought body paint was cute and different - not a very common gift (at least i dont think - either that or i havent been to enough showers.)

It definitely is a cute gift... and not common at all. I wanted to stay away from sexual items, but everything keeps pointing me in that direction... If I can't think of anything else, then I'll succumb to the pressure.

Hey girl!!! Can I make a suggestion? How about some honeymoon stuff? Maybe some travel size packets, his and hers beach towels, travel guides, maybe some sunglasses

HEYYYY! That's a good idea, I thought about it, too... but her wedding isnt until Oct, the shower is this weekend, and we're going to Vegas in July.... if I add those things, I'm sure she'll use it then, so it defeats the purpose... . This is annoying... I'm going to the village any moment now...

Bring a blank telephone book to the shower, and before she gets there, pass it around to everyone, that way she has thier addresses for her thank you's...and then put it in the wishing well.... also, those good grips oxo mixing bowls are awesome

One of my college friends did this for my birthday one year...she had everyone on the our floor in the door put their home info in so that I had it when I was back in NY. It was a GREAT gift.
