One of the things I've been looking at is what to give my BMs. I think I will do a goodbag, and one of the items I was looking into was a "purse hanger" to avoid putting your purse on the floor or on the table. http://www.shopbluenow.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35&products_id=279A friend of a friend makes purses (she's a SAHM), and I may ask her to make a few for them.

    I saw an article about them a long time ago about how girls put their purses on the floor and on dirty surfaces, then go put them on the table where you eat :-| and some wise one out there came up with the "purse hanger" idea. I'm looking at what else to add to the bag, I have a year to collect stuff. Any more ideas?

    Yeah, I heard about the same thing. So nasty. I did bags and the girls loved them. I got their names embroidered on the front. I put flip flops, shawls, ivory padded hangers for their dresses, their jewelery. I tied their things in leopard print ribbon to make it more personal.I wanted to get more, but I ran out of money & time. I wanted to get them an emergency bm's kit.

    October in Houston right? Houston is always hot 11 months out of the year. You should be fine. And the main reason why I got them flip flops was so they didn't have to wear heels at the reception "dancing shoes". They thanked me a million times for it. I wore flip flops with them :-)

    I love my purse hanger, but they don't work on every kind of table. it seems that the majority of restaurants I go to have very thick tabletops with rounded edges, and the purse hanger just slides right off. when the table is less than 1.5" thick and has a squared off edge, it usually works great.

I am gonna put a bottle of wine in each bag then I dunno what else to get them I'm still working on that. I only have 18 more days so I better think fast lol. Any ideas on what FI should get his gm? He can't think of anything.

    I think April was the one who said she had flasks. I think that's a very nice idea for GM.

    You know what is also great... that I always mistake as a purse hanger are the key changes that hook to the edge of your purse so you can always find your keys. You don't have to be digging around your purse. I LOVE mine. They have them at sam moon and on harwin. I have a blinged out paw.[img] http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51%2B3UUhAbdL._SS400_.jpg [/img]
