When you’re picking out bridesmaid gifts, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. What should I get? How do I pick just one thing? To me, it really comes down to picking out a gift you can really use.

The best bridesmaid gifts I’ve ever received were things I could use.

• A pair of beautiful pearl earrings.

• A fun painted wine glass with my face on it.

• A cozy pashmina shawl (the bride got it from here).

• A personalized tote bag filled with gifts (like a set of mason jar shot glasses, a travel-size dress steamer which came in handy the day of the wedding and many times since), makeup, and treats.

These are things I cherish and use all the time; whenever I do, I think of the bride who gifted them to me!

Today we’re talking about the foldover clutch purse which may be your perfect choice for bridesmaid gifts. This particular style — a fold over clutch style with a zipper — is trending right now for a few reasons.

First, it is an elegant bag that can be carried for special events and everyday use. Second, it is monogrammed with her initials, making it a keepsake. Third, it is handmade with vegan leather (faux leather). And lastly, it can carry her essentials on the wedding day and beyond, so it is a functional gift to own with plenty of space to store her stuff.

The foldover clutch looks like this:

Isn’t it beautiful?

Some brides are giving clutches for bridesmaids as gifts, which is more than enough of a beautiful token of appreciation.

Others are giving bags like these PLUS a small gift inside, like a pair of earrings, a cuff bracelet (these are popular), or a gift card for a favorite store, even for something small like coffee or food. It all depends on your budget and what you’d like to give.

There’s no price or rule for gifts — simply give from the heart and make it something they’ll really love to use.

GOOD-TO-KNOW TIP: When you do decide to buy gifts, buy them all in bulk if possible. You’ll save money by purchasing a large order. Many shops on Etsy, for example, offer a discount price when you place a large order at one time. If doing so, order early so you can ensure these handcrafted treasures will have time to be created and shipped for giving as gifts on your wedding day.

We’ve rounded up these beautiful handmade foldover clutches to show you a few examples. Choose colors, include her monogram, mix-and-match or choose a matching bulk set. These beauties are by Naves Design.
