Shower Gifts

June 11th, 2009 @ 1:47 pm by Mrs. French Bulldog

My fabulously fruity shower was this past Saturday and I’m still waiting for the rest of the pictures to roll in. In the meantime, I’m going to show you what I ended up giving my ladies as a “thank you”.

Sister Frenchie and BM J’s gifts were very similar. While they didn’t “host” the shower, I know they put a lot of work into making the shower happen. I wanted to get them something to show my appreciation.
I got these SUPER cute and totally fitting Cherry bags at my local Hallmark.

Inside I gave each girl a sampling of my favorite “shower” products.

Sister Frenchie got two travel sized Product Body products and a tube of my FAVORITE Mary Kay Scrub.

BM J also got a tube of the Mary Kay scrub and a travel-sized lotion from Product Body, and two Bath and Body Works’ anti-bacterial lotions for her purse in my favorite scents, Fresh Pineapple and Lime Verbena. With a toddler on her hands she can never have enough anti-bacterial in her purse.

BM J, BM F and I had gone shopping together a few weeks earlier. BM F had found a bunch of stuff she wanted, but couldn’t justify buying. I, of course, took note and came back the next day to snatch them up.

  1. Microplane Ultimate Citrus Tool - After watching a lot of the Food Network while I was sick yesterday, I was surprised to see how many recipes call for zest.
  2. Citrus Juice Glass - BM F’s kitchen is done in a citrus theme and these glasses match it perfectly!
  3. Mini Bowl Set - Who doesn’t need prep bowls that match their kitchen?

I love giving gifts!I was almost more excited to give these than go to the shower itself.

What was your favorite gift you gave durning your wedding festivities?

What a great idea! I think I might set out a little basket to say “thank you” for coming to my shower to my guests.

I was trying to think of a good thank-you gift for my shower hostesses and I think I might steal this :-) Great idea!

I got my girls knee high white socks (old school style) with 3 pink stripes at the top, and writing down the leg saying “Maid of Honor” and “Bridesmaid.” I LOVED this gift because socks are a huge thing for me, and it was awesome to spread that to my party. I of course had my own “Bride” pair, and our photographer captured us in them while getting ready for the wedding. Great picture!
