Shower Hostess Gifts

I'm extremely blessed to be having 2 showers coming up over the next 3 weeks and I'm at a loss as to what to get the hostesses! Both are good friends and I'd like to do something special but not break the bank. Any suggestions?? TIA!

    I'm pretty generic and practical, so my suggestions would be a one or a combination of the following:

    - amazon GC

    - mani/pedi GC to a place you KNOW they like

    - wine with cupcakes/truffles/chocolates.

    Have fun! 

    11/10: IUI #1 =100mg Clomid CD4-8 + pregnyl trigger + IUI = chemical pregnancy
    1/11: IUI #2 = 5mg Femara + trigger + IUI = BFN
    2/11: IUI #3 = injectibles + trigger + IUI = BFN
    IVF #1 April 2011 ER 4/23 w/16 eggs retrieved, 14 mature, 11 fert., 4 blasts to freeze, 5dt of 2 blasts on 4/28, beta #1 5/7 = 243... beta #2 5/9 = 491....beta #3 5/11 = 1113!!

    How fun that its time for the showers!  I'm online now trying to do the same thing (I have 6 hostesses for my shower!).  I think I'm going with picture frames that they can use for pictures of them with the baby.  I know its small, but since there are so many of them, I needed to keep it small.

    For one shower I had 7 hostesses to buy for so I got them a Tyler candle, bubble bath and a bottle of whipped cream vodka. I think they all loved it! For my other shower I gave the hostess flowers and a spa gc.

    I ended up buying either a nice potted plant for each or a nice hanging basket. They all seemed to like it. I love the mani/pedi idea or the wine/chocolates. Who doesn't love those things?

    Enjoy your showers!!

    Im glad you asked this.. 2 of my cousins are throwing my hometown shower, then someone else is throwing my shower where we live now.

    I think Im going to make a gift basket for my 2 cousins with a bottle of wine from the winery down the street, with a pretty wine glass maybe? and some chocolates or something..

    The other person is a guy hahaha. Soooo im not sure. I know he loves the wine from our local winery, so I know I'll definetely go there for part of it.

    I don't believe that God ever tells us "no". he has three options. Yes, not right now, or I have something better in mind. We just have to wait & see. BabyFetus Ticker

    I'm having 1 shower hosted by 2 good friends.  I got them a Coach wristlet from the outlet store (plus I had a an extra 30% off coupon).  Everyone loves something from Coach!

    I'm getting my 2 hostesses pedi gift cards - I'm sure the 3 of us will get pedis together before the baby is born.
