What kinds of small items could I put in a gift basket for the bridesmaids?

Nail clippers and nail files. Travel sized tissue or kleenex. Chapstick or lip-gloss. Granola bars (it might be a while between meals during a busy wedding weekend). Q-tips. Dove chocolates. A small travel-sized sewing kit. A compact mirror with a cute pattern on the outside, or the wedding colors. Bottled water.

Edit: these are filler items to fill out a gift basket to help them get through the weekend. For actual gifts, a necklace and earrings links to be worn during the ceremony, iPod, nice perfume and lotion.

A friend of mine went to Victoria's Secret and they set up gift bags for her. Each had a couple lip glosses, mascara, hand sanitizer,a small lotion, a small perfume, makeup wipes, and breath mints. She then went to another store and got band aids, an energy bar, and a few other things. Putting things in a gift bag works better than a basket. The bag cost less than a basket & bag is better at keeping things from falling out.

Try bit.ly/KRzEca, you will get good ideas about the bridesmaids gifts. Hope this helps you.

Get them something nice. How much did they spend on you? There is nothing small, inexpensive but thoughtful. If they did not spend Burning on your parties, dresses, etc, then get them some lotions. Otherwise get them some hoop gold earrings or something nice.
