Growing Up Album

Purchase a scrapbook album in a design and size of your choice. Select one with enough pages to put in all the photos and memorabilia you would like to give your matron of honor.
-
2
Use copies of your own photos and memory items. Do not give her your only copy of a photo or document, because you may want to keep a copy for your own scrapbook.
-
-
3
Write a personal message to your matron of honor on the first page. Let her know how much she has meant to you over the years and how happy you are she can be a part of your wedding.
-
4
Add photos and scrapbook decorating items to the album pages. Use stickers, stamps and embellishments to decorate your pages. Also, use a scrap booking marker to write in names and dates for each of the photos.
-
5
Leave room in the back of the album for future photos of the two of you. You can suggest to your matron of honor to fill these pages with pictures of your kids growing up together.
Relaxation Basket

Purchase items to fill a relaxation-themed basket to give your matron of honor. Items to include are bath soap, bubble bath, a plush robe, sponges, an instrumental CD, bath oils and candles.

Fill the bottom of the basket with tissue paper, creating a bed for the items to rest on. Fill the basket with items purchased.

Wrap cellophane around the entire basket and secure at the top by tying a bow around it. Add a thank you card with a personal message written inside of it.
