Bridesmaids Gifts

Trying to decide between various eco-friendly spa gift bags/baskets for my 6 bridesmaids (+ a jr. bridesmaid), or to give them an eco-friendly or etsy bag/purse/clutch with a gift certificate to their favorite store.

I worry that in either case I'm not putting "enough" effort into getting unique gifts, but I'm beginning to drive myself crazy here & don't have unlimited time to look for this stuff before moving on to the next task.

Help! Which idea sounds good you guys?

My maid & matron of honor will get a little something extra no matter what.

This is the gift bag I've been leaning toward, even though the bag color doesn't go with the wedding colors...

    I think those are great gifts.. anything with lotions and spas accessories most women love them.

    I think the bags are super cute. I love that its eco friendly. The clutch could be cute (don't know what it looks like) but then may get thrown in the back of a closet and forgotten about. I don't think it looks like you didn't put in any effort, especially if you give a gc to their favorite store. Either is good. Sorry I know not very helpful. I think I would like a clutch that I would be able to use to go out with, I know I dont have enough.

    Thanks girls! I actually just went for 7 red woven gift bags, a mix of chocolate bars, and these tea infuser mugs, all from a place called Global Exchange Store: http://www.globalexchangestore.org/Tea-Infuser-Mug-Set-p/vncltkc02.htm

    I also found some maple leaf shaped soaps on etsy and get some nice loose tea to add to the bags. Yay, almost done!

    Btw Roxy, your pix are awesome.

    I think the clutch would be the better option.

    Do any of your bridesmaids have skin ailments?  I have severe eczema, and any bath and body stuff I get I have to toss or give away because I can't use it.  That might be a factor to consider.

    I'll be getting my BMs iPod shuffles...each will get one in her favorite color.

    These are the maple leaf soaps I want to get. Hoping the seller can make more since she already sold them!

    Kim, good point! I'm pretty sure my girls are ok with skin, but I will keep that in mind. Hopefully vegan soap w/ no chemicals will be good :-)
