Crystal Jewelry Box
Q.How about the jewelry that you want them to wear in the wedding? I want all my girls to match so I plan on doing that. I've been a bmaid twice and that's what has always been given to me. It's kind of nice to have something you can use again and that reminds you of the wedding.
A.Well, I got a silver jewelry box as a BM gift, and the bride asked me what initials I preferred *if* she were to purchase personalized gifts (I wouldn't do it that way, but I wasn't offended by it either). Initials are good if they are married, but that can be a problem if they are not. You could do just their first initial. I do use the jewelry box, but I also have at least 5 other small jewelry boxes (like many women). I don't know how many women use perfune bottles. They sound nice, but would they actually use them? Also, how do you know what kind of perfume they like? I am very particualr about my fragrances (I only like 2), and some people are allergic to certain ones. Unless you know all this information, it will be hard to shop for. Here are a few ideas of nice things that they can use: - a small crystal bud vase - stationary set (paper, envelopes, pen, seals) possibly personalized - I got my BMs small crystal clocks with a brass name plate on them -- they were perfect for a nightstand or bathroom (I got them at Things Remembered) - personalized gifts to fit their tastes (sewing, sports, dog-lover, etc...) Think about a gift that you would like to get and would actually use. Practical gifts are better than those that really have no use but are pretty to look at. I prefer silver or crystal gifts because they are lasting, but I wouldn't get them anything they cannot use. Picture frames are nice too, and you can put a picture of you with them (not necessarily at the wedding) in the frame.
