Shower hostess gifts?

My mom and sister are throwing us a shower in OCt (that I helped plan-sorta) I know they have both invested a lot of time and money into it and I wanted to get them each something they would enjoy. Any suggestions? I was looking for something original so no gift cards/ taking them out to eat. I wanted to get something they would remember KWIM? What did you get the people who threw your shower wedding or baby? ETA for spelling

Re: Shower hostess gifts?

  • im no help but i think thats really nice of you... my sisters/mom/mil did a great job at my baby shower but i didnt get them anything. to be honest, it didnt even cross my mind to get a shower hostess gift. for my bridal shower i bought everyone necklaces because my bridal party threw my shower...

    Hello. I've waited here for you. Everlong<3<br>
  • well my mom and mil did my shower so i just gave then flowers.  but when i was in my friend's wedding- she gave me a spa GC so i could get a massage.  after all the running around for the party, it was a nice treat!  maybe something like that?  mani/pedi?

  • I think I have my sister a really nice photo album for hosting my bridal shower - like it was handmade paper or something like that. she takes beautiful pictures, so i thought she'd like that. it's not the kind of thing i would have thought she'd treat herself to.

    do they have hobbies?

    maybe have flowers delivered to them, or a flowering plant if you want it to last longer? 

    a personalized frame with some sort of quote on it? would your mom like a special grandma photobook/brag book for the future?

    pretty mug set with flavored coffee/tea, chocolate dipped biscotti, chocolate or honey covered spoons, scones?

    do they get manicures - a pampering thank you is always appreciated especially if you know they go

     

     

     

  • jewelry? bangle bracelets, earrings...doesn't have to be gold/diamond.
