**I just removed the pictures and posted the link to them instead. I couldn't get the image tool to size the pics down in the post :(**
I am trying to decide on what I should get for my bridesmaids. I am thinking about getting each girl a custom made clutch. I am planning to write a personal message to each girl that will be sewn into the lining so that it is more personal and sentimental. I have 3 designs and need help picking one. I get to pick what fabric is used, so ignore the fabric in the picture and just judge on style!
I like the idea of a reversible cutch the best. It's really cool to be able to use it with more outfits. I would be equally happy with a personalized note, not required to have it actually sewn in it.
The metal clutch looks like a big coin purse to me, so it's not my personal favorite.

I like selection number 2. It gives the girls more versatility. And since you won't be able to do the stitching on the inside, try something like a small hanky inside with the saying on it or maybe personalized lipstick or other small trinket.
Personally I dig the first one and the reversible one.
You could also get them different patterns/colors of the same clutch - this might make for some cool photos if you're going to use the clutches during your photo sessions. That would be a way to personalize them even more (especially if you go with the reversible and can't stitch on the inside).
i personally love the idea of having a sewn in keepsake to remember the day.... but i'm sentimental like that. really you can't go wrong... they are all cute bags.

1. Regular clutch:

2. Reversible clutch (can't do the personalized message, but one side can be reflective of their personality and the other can match their dresses):

3. Metal frame clutch:

All the bags are roughly 10"x5"x1".
Thanks for your help! I can't wait to hear everyone's input!
