bridal shower gift

Does anyone have and new or creative ideas on what to get the ladies who are hosting your bridal shower?  I want to get them a little something as a thank you for throwing me a lovely shower but all I have come up with is getting them either a plant/flowers or bath and body works stuff!  Any other ideas?! 

Thank you in advance for your help!!

    How about a gift card to get a manicure or something?

    I love bath and body works.

    Yankee Candle does wedding related scents and they allow you to order special labels for the candles.  Maybe you could do thank you ones.

    I did gift bags for my girls with some really nice soap and car jars from Yankee Candle. I have 7 girls so I wanted to keep it reasonable. They all loved them, and thought it was very thoughtful of me as they didn't expect to get anything.

    I did red buckets filled with shower supplies: soaps & lotions from Bath & Body Works, loofas etc., a scented candle & a bottle of their favorite wine along with a mardi gras mask and beads (we went to NOLA for my bachelorette)...oh and an umbrella.

    The TY note inside said something like: I hope your next shower is as much fun as mine was! They loved them and most had never gotten a BM shower hostess gift before so it was great surprise.

    I'm a ways off from it, but I already have stainless steel water bottles for them (because my biggest advice ALWAYS is "Stay Hydrated"). It becomes especialy applicable if there's a (wild) bachelorette party in the near future...
    I'm going to have something else too, but I still have over a year until my wedding, so this planning is way in advance (my MOH let the schedule of parties slip; I'm not being presumptuous).

    I got the hostesses ceramic trays for nuts/olives/candies etc. from Macy's. They're my mom's friends and I felt kind of weird giving them bath stuff. lol

    I got my BM's who hosted the shower gift cards---one to a hair salon, one to Helen Ficalora and one to Target--each matches the ladies' personalities! 

    I am getting my FMIL who is hosting my next shower a framed and matted Prayer of St. Francis that means a lot to her.

    I was in Lush this weekend and realized that I forgot how much I love their stuff.  They have soap balls, solid shampoos etc in so many diff. colors and scents..thats an idea that on the same line but def. unique from bath & body works!
