    Hi Bees,

              I'd originally planned to pop the question to my bridesmaids with pretty cards and cute stories like I've read many of you did.  In reality, things didn't go down that way.  I realized I didn't want one friend to be my MOH and needed to tell her that she'd be only a bridesmaid.  I knew she was expecting to be MOH, so I didn't want to spring that convo on her with a pretty cricut-ed card.  As for my real MOH, I downed a bottle of wine and spilled the beans one night.  No card, no class, haha.

              Anyways, I would still like to make something special for my girls.  I'd like to make them each a little scrapbook with pictures of us throughout the years, inside jokes, etc.  My question to you:

    Is it silly to do this now as a "Thanks for agreeing to be my MOH/Bridesmaid"?

    Should I just make these as thank-you gifts AFTER the wedding?

    Let me know what you think!  Also, if you've done anything like this for your girls, please share ideas and especially pictures!

    I would do it to give them with their bridesmaid gifts or perhaps when you get your hair and makeup done if you are doing that together.

    I would wait and give it to them as a bridesmaids gift at the rehersal dinner or when your getting ready. This way it is still a thank you for being a bridesmaid but its closer to the wedding.

    That's a great idea, I'm sure they'll love them! I agree with the others, it would be cute as bridesmaids gifts.

    What a lovely and thoughtful idea! Personally, I'd do it for their Bridesmaid gifts!
