Practical and Pretty Gifts Your Bridesmaids Will Love
By: Shari Cabra
Summer is a popular time to get married. Right now, many couples are busy preparing for their big day. Brides are selecting flowers, their cakes and special friends to be bridesmaids. As her wedding day approaches, one of the bride’s last responsibilities is selecting a gift for each one of these special friends. And, it’s always nice to give them something that is both practical and pretty.
Here are some gifts any bridesmaid would love to have:
Enameled Boxes
So practical for organizing earrings and rings or just to dress up a table. Now available in many colors and patterns, and even cute critter-shaped boxes for animal lovers. Google the words, “enameled
boxes” to find oodles of sites that offer them for sale.
Engraved Stationary
Yes, people still write letters. Though so many corners of the world are accessible by plane, cell phones are useless. In the end, sending a letter is the only practical solution to bringing a friend
or family member up-to-date - or maybe just sending a note of thanks. It’s a nice touch to any correspondence when someone writes on pretty engraved stationary.
Wraps
Such a practical piece of clothing for a cool evening on the town or watching the sunset at the beach. Soft rayon blends and delicate silk wraps are so pretty when embroidered with a delicate design or
have a beaded fringe. Any bridesmaid would love a soft wrap to snuggle into on a chilly night.
Jewelry
What could be more practical than a gorgeous pair of earrings or a lovely pendant? And nothing comes in so many pretty colors and designs than jewelry. All you really need to know is your
bridesmaids’ tastes and it’s easy to fine special pieces of jewelry for them.
Bridesmaids usually help a bride make her wedding day perfect. Give your bridesmaids a pretty, yet practical,
