I bought beautiful handmade handbags that look like a bouquet. If you are interested in this idea I will send you a picture of them.

I did these "swag bags" to give to them before we leave

The bags have
a tank that says maid of honor or bridesmaid or flowergirl
a tropical lotion
a tropical lip gloss
a luggage tag
a manicure set
a pair of earrings for every day wear (SS hoops with cz's)
I am also giving them a SS starfish necklace at the rehearsal dinner along with their earrings for the wedding. I also paid for their dresses and shoes.

I bought beach bags and filled them with a bunch of stuff, one of the things in the bags will be the tiffany knockoff starfish necklace i purchased on ebay, it was like $10 including shipping. I think less than that per necklace. And it's really cute. I personally love my Tiffany jewelry but i think my bms would appreciate the knockoff necklace just as much plus they get a whole bunch of other stuff they might like.

I am getting the EXACT same thing for my bridesmaids, and I've bought their shoes, and another necklace for the day of the wedding. The tiffany one is just a keepsake.
I don't think it is out of control, I mean my 2 BM's spent a fortune hosting a fantastic shower, they (along with our BM and GM) are also planning a Stag and Doe
I think it is a fantastic keepsake to honour thier efforts!

I decided against jewelry because of all the wedding jewelry I have received for being someone else's BM, none of it is ever worn again!
I decided to splurge on make up (bobby brown), make up brushes, and other various beauty kit items. I'm spending about 175 for my MOH, but she's worth it... and I know she'll wear it again.

Overstock has lots of cute inexpensive starfish necklaces - I mean for the 10 and 12 year old - they probably wouldn't know the difference:

Unless one of your sisters is a Tiffany fanatic I would suggest getting them a less expensive starfish necklace and something else. As for the younger girls I am sure they would love the idea of getting a Tiffany necklace but enjoy something they would use more often. You get them a less expensive starfish necklace and if they do not already have an ipod I am sure they would love one.

that is WAY more than i'm thinking of spending on gifts. in fact, my OWN wedding-day jewelry probably won't cost that much. i agree with the other ladies that some people might appreciate getting the name brand gift but the fact is that it's only over-priced (albeit well-designed) sterling silver jewelry. i know people who will wear nothing else but tiffany, but personally i just don't get it, even tho i'm a silver/white gold wearer.
i haven't really given it much thought yet, but i will probably buy their jewelry for the wedding as well as pay for an excursion or spa treatment.
