Things that come in both red and gray packages? Think bridesmaid gifts…?
I have two bridesmaids and am trying to come up with a unique gift idea. One thing I thought would be really neat would be to do like Oprah and make them a “my favorite things” package. I wanted to give them the same items, but individualize them for each girl. One’s favorite color is red and the other’s favorite color is gray. I thought it would be neat to get them the same things, each in their favorite color, to personalize them but keep the common theme.
I thought about button-down shirts and comfy bottoms to wear while we get ready the day of the wedding, but couldn’t find anything I liked. Maybe pajamas or robes?
I don’t have a set budget, but I’m going more for meaning than price. If I had to set a limit, I’d say about $50 each?
Going with your robes/PJs idea, try Victoria’s Secret. I don’t know if they will have gray, but they will almost definitely have red.
This may sound silly (I don’t know you and your friends), but you could go to a place like Build a Bear and make them each a bear, and then put them in bridesmaidy type clothes in those colors. Sometimes the things that bring us back to our childhoods are the most fun!

Gift Wrapping with Textiles: Stylish Ideas from Japan $13.52 In Japanese culture, it is customary to put as much care into the wrapping of a gift as into choosing the gift itself. The way a gift is wrapped and the material in which it is presented are considered expressions of the giver’s feeling toward the recipient. Now, using techniques that havebeen part of Japanese tradition for generations, Chizuko Morita offers readers innovative and unique ideas for using the Japanese art of wrapping with cloth in very contemporary ways. In a matter of minutes, a swatch of cloth known as a furoshiki can be fashioned into an elegant wrapping for a CD, abook, a bottle of wine, a box of chocolates, even a soccer ball. And unlike paper gift wrap, if you get it wrong the first time, you can just undo the knots and start again.Not only are the wraps fool-proof, they rely on only three basic knots. INCLUDES: * Stunningly original wrapping ideas * Gift-wraps for wine, books, CDs, pictures, posters, balls, and boxed items of all sizes * Based on techniques that have their roots in centuries-old Japanese traditions of wrapping for gift-giving also * Additional ideas to freshen up everyday items such as pillows, baskets, and more * New thoughts for decorating the breakfast and dinner table * Add an elegant touch to flowerpots, planters, or a bouquet of flowers * Make an instant magazine rack or knapsack |

The Gift $5.98 This simple story about two friends, a rabbit and a pumpkin, is also a parable about life, love, death, and renewal. Angela the pumpkin becomes aware of the sun, wind, earth, and rain both around her and inside her. Moved by the beauty of the world, she willingly sacrifices herself to provide light, love, and life to others. Sammy the rabbit watches as his beloved friend becomes first a lantern to help those afraid of the dark, then pumpkin pie to provide nourishment, and finally seeds to give birth to new life. The Gift is a wonderful way to introduce stewardship to children, especially the ideas of moving from gratitude to stewardship and of being a steward of one’s own talents. Angela first responds with praise a hundred times a day for the gifts she’s received. Then, her immense gratitude moves her to make a response with her whole being, which in turn inspires others to gratitude. This is a timeless lesson about sacrifice that readers of all ages will carry in their hearts forever. The Gift is similar to The Giving Tree without suggesting that title’s often-criticized subtext of female subservience and of enabling. The Gift succeeds on its own as a beautifully written picture book for children ages five and up. It’s also a unique "sermon starter" on stewardship for pastors, preachers, retreat directors, and stewardship committees–as well as a provocative class "discussion starter" for teachers and catechists to use with students from grade school through adult. Because the story remains closely tied to its rabbit and pumpkin characters, it is appropriate for a wide general interfaith audience. |
