Need Bday gift idea for SIL...

Really love my SIL. We get a long very well and she just asked me to be a matron of honor in her wedding.
Need a cute gift idea without spending a fortune, but still sweet since I'll be spending a lot shorty with the wedding and all.
She loves to bake and into crafts. She also moved into a new house with her fiancé
Last year I got her a personalized cake plate to display her cakes. I want to do something similar, but not exact or something for her crafts that'll be good in her new house.
Any ideas or sites to check out?
Thanks

Re: Need Bday gift idea for SIL...

Can you get her a DIY wedding book? If she's big into crafts and getting married soon, she might be able to use all those great ideas to make her wedding super special! Also, maybe you should find something you think she'll really like to do in there and make her a little basket of all the stuff she'll need. As a crafter, I would have loved this before my wedding!

Thank, but I'm not crafty so figured I'd maybe get something personalized online to organize her crafts or recipes.
Any other ideas? Want to get her something and not something for the wedding too since I'll do cute stuff for a shower gift.

I got my SIL a blanket with the picture of the family woven thru it. I didnt expect that she would break into tears. The make is such good quality and it didnt cost a fortune. Its the only gift that i actually see them use.

Here is website for photo blanket

Love! May be better for a part of her shower. Like a beach tote. Nothing too crazy priced, but big for her stuff figured I'd do a honeymoon theme gift and fill it with stuff. Any ideas?

That stuff is awesome. I will keep that in mind for when the weather gets cooler and life slows down a bit. Maybe a party? Can you Fm me some contact info and I will keep it in my inbox and contact you in the fall?

Williams-Sonoma has a really cute "monogram shop" now. You could get her some monogrammed baking stuff to go along with the personalized cake platter you already bought?

What about a baker's rack? It can go in our new house and she can display all the stuff (china or platters) from her shower.

I bought my SIL an apron once that said "Matron of Honor" she LOVED it! You can get like "bride" or maybe her favorite saying? There is also something that I got for my shower and I bought it for my friend's shower. On personalcreations.com you can make a large platter with the whole bridal party. You put their names and match hair color and type and it comes out really cute. I know you didn't want something wedding related but it was a cute idea and I had to share.
