(CMT Offstage keeps a 24/7 watch on everything that's happening with country music artists behind the scenes and out of the spotlight.)

Even if an artist didn't go home from Wednesday night's (June 5) CMT Music Awards with a big silver belt buckle, they still had the opportunity to go home with a nice little prize. Actually, it's not so little. The gift bags were specially crafted for all of the hosts, presenters and performers and were packed with essentials (bourbon is essential, right?) from local Nashville companies along with national brands.

Here's a peek at what was inside each bag:

Olive & Sinclair chocolate bars

A bottle of Belle Meade Bourbon

Handmade coffee sack clutch bag from Couture Coffeebags

Piggy Pop candied bacon popcorn from the Loveless Café

A bronze cuff bracelet or wide silver hoop earrings from Margaret Ellis Jewelry

Music City Suds handmade candle, lip balm and soap

A copy of Nashville Lifestyles magazine

Colorfully retro POP phone from Native Union

Teroforma Whiskey Stones (which work very well with the Belle Meade Bourbon)

The Bang Candy Company handmade caramels

This Bar Saves Lives snack bars

Nashville Field Guide books from Wildsam

Whisper Creek Tennessee Sipping Crème

Sun Records reissue vinyl from Third Man Records

Southern Fried Design Barn greeting cards
