BM gift ideas please

angstocker22

I have purchased a few things already but I wanted to add just a little bit more.
So far I've purchased:
1. a personalized gift tote
2. shoes for the wedding
3. damask compact purse mirror
4. earrings for the wedding
5. ??

I want to get them just one more thing.. I got a really good deal on the personalized gift totes, they were usually $26 but I got them for $12. The shoes were $25. Mirrors were $2.50, earrings $10. So that comes to $49.50. I know that's enough, but I kind of wanted 1 more item to put in the totes... to "fill" them up some more.
I was thinking about this:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/44338723/clutch-wallet-in-black-and-pink-damask?ref=sr_list_14&ga_search_query=damask+clutch&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=&max=15.00&order=price_asc&includes%5B0%5D=tags&includes%5B1%5D=title

or something like it.. a little damask make up bag or something.. 
any other suggestions? thanks!

Do all your BMs like damask and pink?  I only ask because I'm personalizing each BM's gifts in colors/styles I think they'll enjoy.  My BMs are getting:

Table purse hanger
Customized embroidered collapsible umbrella
Tote
Bath set (body wash, pouf, and lotion)
Embellished flip flops for wedding
Jewelry for the wedding

Yes, they all love black & pink. I'd say 1/2 of them love the damask print & half like it....

Where did you buy the table purse hanger?

I am still trying to come up with my gift items. So this is helpful.

What about something they could use later, like a gift card? If all your BMs are attached, you could also include a massage bar from LUSH, they are not too expensive, and a fun romantic gift for two. Plus them come packaged in a cute tin.

Flip flops in case they want to take off their shoes during the reception?

Your money would be wasted if you bought me that clutch. It's just not my style and I would never use it. But obviously you know your friends' styles best!

mergator - I've never heard of Lush, thanks for letting me know, I will check it out.
melissa - I wondered that too... I mean, I have like 6 make up bags of my own, but then again, I use all of them.... nail polish, make up i dont wear everyday, etc... also I thought it'd be cute to slip that little mirror into the make up bag & maybe buy them a lip gloss or something? I dunno...

If they all like it, then I say go for it.  I know my MOH likes pink but the other two girls both like green & blue.  I got the purse hangers from http://www.etsy.com/shop/glassygirls777?section_id=6267314

She does custom orders if there aren't colors you see that you like.  It took her about an extra week to do the custom order since I wanted a pink one for MOH.  I also got one for myself.

Melissa - yes ma'am!

Personally, I'd rather have a makeup bag than a clutch.  I don't use clutches and when it comes to wallets, I think everyone's a bit picky about the kind they have.  I do however use a makeup bag A LOT and personally would love one, but that's just me.   I like the idea of doing the bag and sticking the mirror in it and a nice maybe sheer/tinted/shimmery lip gloss/stick/something in it.

I agree, I think it needs to be a make up bag... i thought this one said it could be used for either. I will keep looking for one that fits make up. Thank you jolene for your opinion.

I found a seller on ebay that has some super cute damask makeup bags and stuff:

Oh!  I thought you were asking me if that's why I was giving my BMs flip flops for the wedding!  Sorry, misunderstood! :P

melissa82

Oh! That was my suggestion, haha!
