Bridesmaid Gift Question

What do you think of giving each bridesmaid a painting?  I love to paint and am pretty good at it (one of them has already said that she would love a painting someday), but I don't know if this would be tacky or rude.  It wouldn't be wedding related but most likely reflect on each person or just be something pretty.  For instance, one girl I want to ask absolutely loves books and libraries, so it would probably be something related to that.

I know I have a long time, but I am typically pretty busy (but with the summer coming up, I should have a good amount of free time to do this) and so I would like to get started within the next few months.  Each one, would probably take me 2 weeks at least, depending on the size and complexity. Though it could take up to a month or two for each one, again depending on what I decide on, which is why I want to start sometime soon.  I am just kind of worried this is a tacky or rude gift.

Re: Bridesmaid Gift Question

  • I LOVE this idea.  I'm a painter as well and never thought of doing something like this. The only caution I would give is, are you sure all of your BMs likely to hang it?  The only reason I say something is I know one of my BMs definitely won't, she's not into that sort of thing.  If you think they would then I think this is an awesome idea.

    What sort of paintings do you do, can you post something?  Just me being curious.

  • I don't think it's tacky or rude. You're putting your time and care into it, which is sweet. My only concern would be whether they'd want to hang it in their houses. I don't doubt the quality of your work, but some people just aren't into paintings or decor that they didn't personally choose, no matter how great it is. Do it if you think they will be used.

  • Great idea! I'm sure they will love it and it's something they can (and probably will) keep forever.
