Need a good shower gift...pleaseeee!

My MOH is having a surprise shower this weekend, and she has NOTHING left on her registry ( ). We're doing a bunch of things for her as a bridal party, but I also wanted to give her something cute and sentimental.

But I tried making a shadow box frame and it looks like a disaster....so I'm hoping you guys will help me out.

I originally was going to do the bottles of wine for each special occasion (thanks kim for the idea), but the bridal party stole it from me ( ) so now I have to come up with something else.

Helppppppp!

I odn't know if they have rush delivery though.

You can always do a BBB giftcard or an AMEX giftcard.

Re: Need a good shower gift...pleaseeee!

I got a gift at our engagement party and it was a Christmas ornament with our wedding date on it. I thought that was perfect because it is something we will always have.

HTH!

Looks like if you order it now, you might have it in time... it says 2-3 days delivery... I would even email them and see if they can overnight it.

Ornaments would be great, but their wedding is in November and they are giving ornaments as a favor....so I'm sure someone else is going to do that for them.

Re: Need a good shower gift...pleaseeee!

you know whats a great idea....do the household basket poem

buy all items and read it to her as she opens basket

Dear (Bride's Name):
You are entering a new ERA
There will come a THYME in your marriage when you find (Groom's name) is not always MR CLEAN.
But dont send out the S.O.S because he may VANISH.
(Groom's name) will always bring you CHEER and you will find that he is you white DOVE.
When you are together you will find JOY.
So remember your PLEDGE and give him your ALL.
To (Bride and Groom)
The best of luck & Good Fortune in the years to come.
And may (Groom) always be your HONEY

or


It is only fair that we let "Sarah" in on a little SECRET. "Mike" may be FANTASTIC but wait until she finds out that he is not MR. CLEAN. He'll expect her to be a DYNAMO in the kitchen and he thinks all women should MOP & GLOW. At night he'll wake you up at DAWN to SNUGGLE up close. We all AGREE that "Sarah" and "Mike" will have a very happy LIFE together. Our wish for you is that your home be filled with JOY and you remain as happy as ever in the FUTURE.

I think something they can use each month for the first year of marriage, or it might be a gift for each season actually lol

Re: Need a good shower gift...pleaseeee!

How about the Laundry Basket Poem? Here's how it goes. All words in bold you put those items in the laundry basket and when you read the poem out loud you hold up each item as you get to it. This is one of my favorite presents.

We gather together with you to celebrate the dawn of a new era. Marriage is a journey. Some days it will be pure joy but let's take a moment and talk about the others.

There may come a time when you realize your big brawny guy isn't necessarily Mr. Clean. When this and other little glitches occur, don't shout or send up an SOS. Go easy-on
Him. Hopefully the Tide will change quickly, tensions will vanish, and things will bounce back to normal.

We think you and ____ are a fantastic couple with a zest for life and a sincere appreciation for each other. We fully support you as you and ____ pledge to spend your lives as one.

We wish you all the best... Including love, happiness and lots of time to snuggle.
