For my girls I am painting them each a piece of pottery and giving it with gourmet like food:
(SIL coffee lover) Coffee mug with gourmet coffee and flavor sticks
(sister who wants to start cooking) Pasta serving bowl with Pasta and sauce
(sister who loves japanese food) Sushi Plate with gc for sushi restaurant
(SIL who loves to bake) Cookie Platter with piping bag and cookie cutters
The serving pieces, if hand made may be quite pricy but if you bought them they shouldn't be too bad. By just adding gourmet like foods, most of them wouldn't really buy it makes it really nice.

| I'm getting my girls something more on the kinky side. I hosted a pure romance party recently and they loved some of the things so I'm putting a package together for them.

| You can actually find some awesome jewelry sales now and then. I was the only attendent in my best friend's wedding -- she made the jewelry I wore. It is still one of my favorite necklaces / pairs of earrings!

| BABE: The jewelry that I can afford is quite tacky and I wouldn't wear it. I have to think budget. I also asked one of my bridesmaids if she would prefer a tote bag or jewelry, and she said tote bag hands down. If I could give them all spa days, I would :)

| I got the tote bags, and found some things at Bath and Body Works during one of their major sales.

|
| I am going to make my girls a 'goodie' bag that had some things to pamper themselves and the tote that I put it in will be embroidered with their name

| When I was a bridesmaid, I was given a cute little jewelry box that was perfect for traveling or throwing in a big purse. I use it all the time.

| I used tote bags for my gifts!!! They have awesome ones at www.llbean.com and they have a lifetime guarentee on them so if anything ever happens to them they can be fixed for free. Also they have all kinds of colors so you can be personal with each girl and they monogram! The medium sized one is right in your price range! I did this then I also got very cheap jewelry b/c I wanted everyone matching :) Congrats!!!

| I think I'm just gonna buy the dresses and call it good or have them get the dresses and then I'll pay for some spa treatments or something.

I've typically received the jewelry I've worn in the wedding as a gift.
Monogrammed tote bags sounds like a fantastic idea.

What are you giving? I'm having the devil of a time figuring it out. I'm thinking of perhaps getting them monogrammed tote bags. I ran jewelry by one of my 'maids and she shot that down as an idea.
I'm on a budget, too. 20-30 dollars per person (except for my maid of honor, but I know what I'm getting her).
