A Unique Gift That's Affordable

I was standing in line at McDonalds when I spotted a photo purse that a woman was carrying. I asked her if it was her family and she said yes. She said she was a photographer and she took the family photo and had it placed on the purse. She told me she could order them and gave me her business card.

While I was perusing the web for the photo purse I was astounded at the price they were asking for them. Albeit they may be worth the price I had wanted to find a unique gift for a friend of mine. She has everything she wants and its always a struggle to find something "cool" for her each year at Christmas.

After I stumbled onto www.bagettes.com I was simply amazed at the pricing let alone the selections. Here was something my friends and I could afford for our friend.

I asked my gift receiving friend for her favorite picture. It happened to be of her granddaughter dressed in her princess attire. "How cute would that be on a small cosmetic bag?" I asked my friends.

We were set. I had a unique gift that my friends and I could present on our limited budget. Something no one else would have. I like to present those types of gifts, unique to the individual receiving them, and with www.bagettes.com I accomplished my(our)goal.

Everyone ooo'd and ahhed when we exchanged gifts. And after Grandma showed the Princess the bag with the photo, Princess Hannah was a keeper.

I was so pleased with the product as well as the help I received from www.bagettes.com when I placed the order.

I have mentioned this site to a friend who has a daughter getting married soon. I think the cosmetic bag shown on the site with the bride and bridesmaids is just so special.

Thanks for making an unique and affordable gift. Thank you for your help when I placed the order.

The Bragette

I gave my mom and mother in law each one of your small bagettes this past Mother's Day. They featured a black and white photo of my son on one side, and my daughter on the flip side. Both moms golf, and immediately started using their bagette to carry makeup, cash, etc. Shortly after, however, they decided that their cargo wasn't nearly precious enough for the carrier, so they started using it everyday. They stuff it with photos of the kids, plus the little things they rely on each day when they're out and about. They're out and about a lot, and from what I hear, my kids are getting a lot of exposure.

You're so smart to put a bagette loop on the zipper - so many women have seen the bagettes we made and have decided they needed one too. I bet you didn't know that my kids were your spokesmodels...I bet if you asked, you'd find that you have LOTS of little spokesmodels!

Thanks for helping me to give a gift that will never be matched in meaning, adoration or thoughfulness. I would love a bag for myself, but in that case, it might be more of a "BRAGette" (grin). You're doing great work, and have lots of big fans.

Great Gifts and Lasting Memories

I bought 3 small cosmetic bags for my mother, mother-in-law and husband's grandmother. They all 3 loved them. My mother-in-law carries her's everywhere and shows everyone. She's a proud grandma of a beautiful granddaughter. My husbands grandmother also carries her everywhere to show it off. My mother carries hers but doesn't want to put anything in it because for some reason something might happen to it. She also shows off her beautiful granddaughter's beautiful smile that is on the cosmetic bag. All of them have left the bagette tag on the zipper so when people ask them where they got it, they first say it was a Christmas present from their granddaughter and greatgranddaughter and her mom got it from Bagettes.com. I want to think you for the great gifts and lasting memories that they will have forever

The Reactions I Got Were Priceless

I actually saw a lady this past summer with a purse from a competitor company and fell in love with it. My sister and I stumbled upon the bagettes.com website and were in awe to see the price difference between the two companies. The price difference sold me 100%. The quality looked almost exactly the same for about 1/4 of the price. Between my sister and myself we ordered 10 Christmas presents from bagettes for people in our family. I have also recommended bagettes to three of my girlfriends who have upcoming weddings for bridesmaids gifts.

Finding Christmas gifts is always a hard thing to do because you want to find something personal and amazing for the ones you love. Not only the anticipation I had to receive them in the mail, but the reactions I got from my loved ones was priceless. Everyone loved their gifts and appreciated the fact that so much thought and personalization went it to it. The reality is though I actually didn't put hardly any time into it!

I know how much I would love a gift like that, so I knew from the start that it was going to be a hit. The thing I appreciate the most from bagettes is the great quality with such an affordable price and their customer service far exceeded my expectations. I plan on giving gifts from bagettes for years to come. Thank you!

A Gift For Her to Remember the Joy

I purchased a Bagette for my mother-in-law. On one side it has a picture of my 10 year old son holding our newborn daughter and the other side is my mother-in-law holding her. We had our son in 1994 and he was and is the apple of our eyes. He was the only grandchild on my husband's side of the family. We tried for many more years to have another child. In 2001 after years of fertility treatments we had a son who died at birth. After that heartbreak we decided that we would adopt. In November of 2004 we adopted our little girl. My mother-in-law lives in another state and comes to visit often. I wanted her to be able to see the pictures whenever she opened her bag and remember the joy we all felt when we brought our daughter home. Thanks for offering the gift that allows such a thing!!

What a Special Gift

I recently ordered Bagettes for all of the bridesmaids in my wedding and also one for my mother. What a special gift for those so close to you. My mother's reaction was probably the most poignant. I put a photo of the two of us together on one side when I was about 3 and one of us several years ago on the other side. What a memory for her! My younger sister's reaction was almost as teary! Again, I put an image of the two of us younger on one side, and the two of us older on the other. Two of my bridesmaids were mothers themselves, and not having great pictures of me with them, I decided to give them a bagette with a picture of their respective daughters on it. I can't tell how how special they felt to receive such personalized and heartfelt gifts. Everyone in the room was crying when I gave them out. What a wonderful way to give someone a meaningful gift! I will recommend your services to everyone I know. Your product was a perfect addition to my wedding day!

I'm so excited about my Mom's gift...

In November, I ordered a small cosmetic bag for my Mom for Christmas. I barely made the deadline for Holiday shipping b/c we were celebrating Christmas 1 week earlier. My husband and I and our 2 daughters (Olivia is 3 and Stella just turned 1) live in a suburb of Detroit and my parents live in Kalamazoo (across the state-roughly 150 miles away). I picked the perfect 2 pictures for my Mom's bagette...one side had my girls both in hooded pink sweatshirts and the other had me and my girls. They call her "GiGi" as opposed to the more traditional "grandma" so I even included the zipper pull "Love, GiGi's Girls". It turned out perfect!! I had it delivered to work and showed it to everyone...I knew my mom would love it.

So, because we were celebrating early, I had to make sure I had all my gifts ready and wrapped to go. Not to mention hauling all the stuff that goes along with 2 small kids...diaper bags, pack & plays, potty seats, and of course gifts for the rest of my family. So we stuff our Chevy Blazer and head out the door on a snowy Saturday morning, Dec. 17th. I'm so excited about my Mom's gift...I had totally bragged it up to her, told her she was going to cry...the whole 9 yards. Well, about half way there (Jackson MI is always our "pitstop"), I have a bad feeling that I left the bagette under my tree. I had put it in a rather small box, so I begin to rifle through the back of the car while my husband is filling up our gas tank. It is then, I realized, I had left Mom's bagette under my frickin' Christmas tree!!! I burst out into tears, my husband is completely confused, my 3 year old's version of Jingle Bells is slowly driving me insane...I just couldn't believe it. As I'm crying in the front seat, my wonderful husband asks me if I want him to drive back home to get it! I was so touched, and very tempted, but we were definitely on "borrowed" time as it was with my youngest daughter. I just couldn't bare adding another hour and a half to our trip.

So our Christmas gift exchange wasn't as fantastic as I had hoped...I was so mad at myself. Fortunately, Stella turned one on January 7th, and my parents attended her birthday party so I finally gave Mom the bagette. She did cry and she kept saying how it was worth waiting for. But guess what?! In all the chaos of saying goodbye, giving kisses to everybody, getting my 83 year old Nana back in the car, SHE FORGOT THE BAGETTE!! She discovered it half way home too!! So here I am, leaving for a trip back home for Valentine's Day and her Bagette is already tucked carefully in my overnight bag and I'm leaving it with her FOR GOOD this time!!

This was my 2nd bagette and I love them! Keep up the great work!

It Was the Perfect Personalized Gift for My Family

I have three sisters and I made all of them AND my mom bagettes for Christmas. Each was customized with one side a picture of just the sisters and the other side a picture of their children. My mom's was a picture with her daughters and the other side was a picture of her grandkids. The gifts were the hit of our Christmas celeration. Eveyone loved their bagettes and carry them around with them always. It was the perfect personalized gift for my family.

She Screamed . . . the Best Gift Ever

This year for Christmas I decided I wanted each gift I gave to be unique and personalized. I had received a bagette for a gift and knew that my mom, sis in law and good friends would LOVE a bagette of their own. I ordered my bagettes the beginning of Nov and was so exicted when I got them it was everything I could do to keep my mouth shut. Each ladies bag had a picture of myself with them and the other side had another fun picture on them. When my mom opened her bag which had our picture on one side and then a whole family picture on the other, she screamed and said that was the best gift ever, but how in the world did I make the, "you must have spent hours slaving over this" actually mom a few clicks of my mouse on the internet and they were ordered! She carries her new camera in her bag and shows EVERYONE! My sis in law adores her bag, she was just as shocked and excited. My good friend Emily carries her makeup in hers and loves it, since I am 1200 miles away, she uses that to show me to everyone. Christmas was 2 months ago and she said she still is showing EVERYONE her "favorite" Christmas present! Her daughter Hannah who I gave one too said she was the envy of all the girls at school, cause her makeup bag is "so cool" Seeing the excitment, surprise and joy on each ladies face as they opened their bagette made it worth every penny and more!! It's a gift that keeps on giving and it's LOTS of free advertising for Bagettes.com!!! I'm thinking about having a purse made soon! Thanks Bagettes.com for a GREAT product!
