Wedding shower etiquette question

[papaver]

Re-gifting?
I have this beautiful Pottery barn salt and shaker set that I received as a gift from my boss for xmas. It's a nesting, white pottery set. Anyhow, I live on a farm in house with lots of dog hair and dust and this thing never even made it out of the lovely designer box it came in. The box is in my china cabinet.

I am thinking of re-gifting.

Hey, if you want to keep it really cheap: Give the salt set at the shower and the pepper set at the wedding.

No seriously, if she's a really good friend, why don't you give her something really personal? Like a nice framed photograph of an event you both have good memories of.

I had a wedding like you, no fuss, and the gifts i enjoyed the most were the personal, non expensive ones.

Another thought: why don't you give her a 'day'. Like a day you do things together, go to a spa and get a massage and have a nice lunch afterwards. Or plan a nice ride if she's into cycling too.
