Bridesmaid Gift - Clutch Packing List

I am getting my bridesmaids clutches that are personalized to their personalities. I was wanting to include some items inside the clutch to get them through the day. So far I am thinking some tissues (my MOH is a crier), asprin, mints, but does anyone have some suggestions for some other functional or fun things to include?
Thanks

    Instead of tissues why not find them each vintage handkerchiefs.  Also try putting at least one thing in them that doesn't have anything to do with your wedding.  Maybe a GC to their favorite store or a nice piece of jewelry (not related to what they have to wear for the wedding).

    Jagore's advice is excellent.  You could also walk through the trial size section of your local drugstore or target for functional items.  What is functional for one might be differnt for another.  My best friend has thin hard to manage hair whenever we have an event she needs a little mini hairspray to stay looking her best.  I have the kind of hair that you spray at 8 am and it is good until 8 pm.  You know your girls so the bags don't have to be identical.  Who is the chapstick queen,  the hair flipper, or the pratical joker?  even esentials can reflect the indivduals.

    [QUOTE]I hate to sound ugly - but just give them the clutch. Most women already have aspirin, Chapstick and stuff like this with them. As a gift, it's kind of lame.

    I was thinking something similar. That stuff is pretty personal and something that you're already thinking about without someone else putting a package together for me.
