    I purchased some cosmetic bags and filled them with little trinkets for all the ladies who are staying in the hotel suite with me for two nights before the wedding. The cosmetic bag includes a purse hanger, a key chain, mini candle, mini lotion, antibacterial hand gel, and mini tide-to-go. All of the cosmetic bags have each girls name embroidered on them... 

    Since my maid-of-honor and my sister are my bridesmaids... Should I get them a separate gift as a thank you? They are getting the cosmetic bag, plus a clay bouquet similar to mine of their own.  

    I would post pictures, but I can't figure out how to! (So if anyone wants to share how to upload a picture from Flickr on a Mac that would be great and you can see what I have for the girls!)

    Trying Flickr again.... with the tree icon thing. It works when I enter it in before posting, but then when it posts the picture doesn't show up! Why is that?

    I think the bags are cute! That said, I think if your bridesmaids spent money on dresses, shoes, etc. and time helping you plan, hosting showers or putting other effort into your big day you might consider getting them something additional.

    Maybe necklaces they can wear the day of? Or a gift they really want, but not necessarily wedding related. My one bridesmaid's smoothie maker is broken and I might replace that for her. That way it's something you know they want and will use.
