Maria, if you end up giving them matching purses, you can put a little different colored ribbon or silk flower on each one for the day of the wedding so they don't spend their lives figuring out who's pourse is who's.
Gimme some milk.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Something's better than nothing.
I guess. I am SO AMBIVALENT.
Which tells me something I should know.

Also, shiny faceted black beads with marcasite would be very pretty.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Heather, I totally would do a shopper's tour of Dallas.
That's a good idea, Trudy. I didn't even think of that.

Now where's the ambivalence in *that* statement? It looks suspiciously like an opinion to me. Hah! sarameg's an IMPOSTER on the ambivalence front. Or not.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
You could make a fortune doing that, Heather.
That is to say, a shopping tour with your expert guidance sounds like a lot of fun.

Oh, when it comes to jewelry, I DEFINITELY have opinions.
Just not in the earning of the filthly lucre to acquire the shinies.

The status is NOT quo.

This is a really nice idea, and it can become symbolic, too. My dearest friend had a Ren wedding, and she made each of her bridesmaids a garland for our hair. She used a different color ribbon for each of us to symbolize our relationship with her; for example, mine was green because I was the newest of her friends in the party and she wanted my garland to represent the fresh new growth of our friendship. It was really touching and meant all the more to me because of it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Perkins these are mine. One lump is a lot higher than the other.
One more question, ita-- what size did you get? I am thinking the medium would work for me.
Oops, I lied. Did you buy their pillow cases, or do normal ones fit them?

It's one of those things borne of experience and someone nearly not having her car keys as another bridesmaid strolled away with the wrong purse.

Last wedding I attended, the MoB took the wrong car.
Left the b&g temporarily stranded at the reception without their change of clothes and hotel keys. And all the gifts. And she didn't come back, either. "Too far." Luckily, par for the course, so b&g just laughed it off and the hotel and limo company got them all set.
However, I doubt personalization would have helped that circumstance.
