    OK I know this question is kind of dumb but I figured it'd be better to ask anyways and seem dumb in front of you guys than my bridesmaids lol.

    Is it dumb to add a little note telling them what the gift is?  I made them little hand-stitched makeup cases, that they can use for makeup, eyeglasses, tampons, etc.  I am going to fill them with a few things.  I'd add a little tag to the zipper that says "Use me for: makeup, glasses, whatever!  Lovingly handmade just for you by Sboston06"

    Is it dumb to assume that they basically won't know what it's for?  Should I leave off the tag and let them figure it out?

    In addition to being instructional, the tag is sweet!  Go for it!  Better to be on the safe side!

    Love the Tag idea. No misinterpretations and full on appreciation for all of the thought and effort that went into a homemade gift!

    haha.

    I looked at the subject of this post, and knew it was from a fellow new england bride!

    The tag idea is super sweet. It will make it look like a real couture item!

    @robinlinz: Ditto on reading the title!

    OP: The tags are a win-win, since they're both functional and a sweet touch!

    Love the tag idea too!  Sometimes where I get little things like that I'm thinking to myself what the heck is this for?
