Bridesmaids gifts & minimalism

I really think a blanket will be fine. Even minimalists get cold!

Could you substitute the blanket for something else that she may use more? Possibly something more related to travel or a gift card?

I also agree with this, if she has an RV one more blanket on her bed isn't a huge deal.

If she has an RV she might like the blanket so she can hang outside where she parks it even if it's chilly.

I would keep the blanket! You can never have too many blankets! I love blankets because I’m always cold!!

Her gift can be different from the other maids. She is MOH after all so she’s kind of special Plus it’s ok to cater to her lifestyle

I'm not a fan of stuff. I think a blanket is perfectly fine as long as it's not poor quality. I'd be more worried about giving her a scarf unless a. the bridesmaids are expected to wear it to the wedding or b. she already wears/owns them.

Wow thanks for the fast responses guys! I was thinking of maybe getting her paint nite passes (she likes to paint) but then I am going to feel really bad if she likes the blanket that the other 2 maids got. I know this is mostly an internal dilemma so I guess I just have to think on it. I appreciate everyone's input!

View Quoted Comment I would just ask her, given that you know she is trying to live that lifestyle. We told everybody for Christmas and everything not to do physical gifts because of the clutter and everything so I feel the same way.

She would probably appreciate it if you asked, and then you know you've made the right choice!

A blanket sounds like a great gift for her actually. perhaps the scarf and pampering items are less her taste but maybe you can customize those items for each bridesmaid depending on her taste?

I think it's ok to give it to her and then what she does with it is up to her. A blanket can be used well.

How about both a paint night and a blanket since she's your MOH!
