    I am finishing up putting together BM gifts.  I alredy bought cute personalized lunch totes and purse hook things, but I want to add a little something else.  I was thinking about buying a necklace I found on Etsy for my flower girl, and then I thought that maybe I could buy similar necklaces for my BMs as well. 

    The issue is that the initial charm is small (only 9-12 mm).  Would that look funny on an adult?  These wouldn't necessarily be for them to wear for the wedding, just as a token.  Here is a pic of the necklace:

     I have eight BMs, so $$ adds up SUPER quickly.  Each necklace would be just under $20 with the multiple purchases discount, but I'm also debating whether or not to spend that much more on BM gifts.

    Thanks for your input!

    I think it is a really cute necklace but I wouldn't be able to wear it because I have to wear gold.

    Could you check to make sure no one has sensitive skin and that would require gold jewelry.

    Even if I got this as a gift, I would still appreciate the thought you put into it.

    I think it's adorable - however, if it's not going to fit into your budget, maybe you can find something less expensive.....have you checked out personalized jewelry on Etsy?

    It is really a good gift for your flowergirl, but I don't think it would work for an adult. I think it would look too small.

    They are really cute, but if you are worried about money, i think you did enough already!

    Thanks for the responses!

    I'm trying to be conservative on my spending, but I can manage the extra $$.  I don't mind spending a little more, I just want to make sure that I'm not spending an extra $170 on something that my girls won't like or will look silly.

    yrret: good point on the metal material!  My BMs are all in the clear as far as that goes, but definitely something good to keep in mind!

    While I think it is cute, I would not want to wear it. I think since the charm is so small it would be a good gift for a flowergirl.

    It's girl cute, but not adult cute so I wouldn't want to wear it. If you really want to buy necklaces there are other options.

    So most people aren't bothered by the size of the initial charm, maybe I'll just bite the bullet.

    I have the option of getting another slightly larger charm, but the seller said that would raise the price "significantly", although I'm not sure what that amount would be.  Anyone in the morning crew want to chime in?

    Shameless bump to hear any last minute opinions before I make the purchase...
