Looking Good. Smelling Good.

I read Creature Comforts every day and am delighted when EZ posts her DIY tutorials. I found this one perfect for a bridesmaid, hostess or even Mother’s Day gift. Simple and very budget friendly. EZ even provides the template and file for you to download her label designs.

I’ll definitely be including these in my out-of-town gift bags or bridesmaid packages.

Check out Ez’s other tutorials here.

Does anyone else have other budget friendly gift suggestions for the wedding guests or wedding party?

Hello, I’d like to say, “this is absolutely a great idea.” Try a bundle of things in a gift basket (women love this). I’d also like to add the following:

One of the biggest concerns about planning a wedding or rehearsal is what to get a groomsmen or bridesmaid as a gift. The most typical gift for the member of the wedding party is jewelry, cufflinks, or flasks. How boring is at?

Remember that your groomsmen and bridesmaids were chosen for a particular reason. They obviously mean a lot to you, so isn’t it best to get them something you know they would really like? Why not try an original gift?

For instance, a bride I previously assisted bought antique plaques, carved with the persons last name to mount in their bedroom or living room wall (each at $15.00). Another bride bought several fleur de lis, designed pill cases ($17.00/ea).

Furthermore, a groom I knew bought star wars toys for his groomsmen that they could place in their work cublical and his bride bought carebears for each of the bridesmaids. So you’re thinking, “carebears?” This may sound silly but we’re getting old and still young at heart. She gave each bridesmaid a different kind of carebear (her best friend was “Secret Bear” - the greatest friend a bear can be). Now, I would say this is quite humorous but special.

So why not give the wedding party something unique that will make them grin yet, appreciate at the same time? Try it and you’ll get the pleasure out of seeing their faces.
