For a while Modcloth had a beautiful set of angel wing earrings, and a matching necklace. Too lazy to find it though.

Also, elephants? Is that a symbol for someone? Forgive my ignorance.

I'm trying to figure out what the ducks are for...not too many Delta Upsilons wear ModCloth.

thetaj 10-26-2010 02:54 PM

Move over, and make room. Not a flipping kite anywhere. *sticks out lower lip*

sherrybaby 10-26-2010 08:59 PM

No ivy leaves ... :(

thetaj 10-26-2010 11:19 PM

No :( There were some necklaces with leaves, but none of them distinctly ivy. Pretty much just generic tree leaves.

Likewise...

Alumiyum 10-26-2010 11:49 PM

Sometimes I'll go to Polyvore and type in "squirrel" (or whatever mascot) which results in everything they have linked with squirrels...I've found some cute stuff that way.

Thanks for the suggestion! It's not so easy searching for giraffe clothing and accessories.

Not easy, but not impossible either.

Also, cute tank tops.

I was just about to say this! Etsy is probably AXOs' best bet for lyre stuff. Here is what I found.

nittanygirl 10-28-2010 08:22 AM

Lol psusue you are way into this haha

I gotta admit I am jealous of those w/the elephant as their symbol. I like elephants. And giraffes.

I LOVE sailboats too though :)

For all you Thetas who are Disney fans:

There's now a whole set of Disney pins with kites as a background to different Disney characters! We saw them all over WDW a few weeks ago. You could probably go to eBay and type in 'disney pins kites' and various sellers would pop up.

psusue 11-21-2010 02:36 PM

Platter for a Panhellenic luncheon, anyone?

lovespink88 11-21-2010 02:57 PM

Here's a challenge.... Quills anyone? Yeah, didn't think so :(

I've looked, and the stuff that can pass for a quill that I find isn't cute. Yeah, we can do a rose, but that's generic. Yeah there's teddy bears, but I'm not 5.

Sigh.

I try to help where I can.

Hopefully some of those will be agreeable to you. I really liked the first one. Makes it clear what it is, anyway.

I think you're right. Ladybugs were all over the place last year, but this year there are owls everywhere.

I looooove the penguin stuff!!! I just love penguins in general :)

I feel your pain! Our real symbol is the lamp, but it's hard to find anything that doesn't look like Aladdin.

We have roses (which I love) and turtles, but to me Delta Zeta will always be our lamp.

I looked and this is what I could find.

I liked the last one best. Almost all of them said "Aladdin" in their listings though. Hopefully one works for you!

And I can't find ANYTHING with anchors...

:::Waits for psusue to take the bait and type a sentence with links that will take me to a bunch of cool anchor items:::

:D

BabyPiNK_FL 11-23-2010 09:47 PM

For all of you loathing not being able to locate your symbols, I truly feel AChiO (lyre) and Phi Mu (quatrefoil) have it the worst by far. No cute cuddle animals, just some rare symbols.

And the bait I do take. I love shopping for people who aren't me, haha.

And what I could find for quatrefoils. Quite a difficult shape to find, I might say. But so beautiful too.

Went and searched for this the other day because I remembered there were some great finds, and thought I'd revive it with some additions.

I've found some great charms at dogeared.com for so many sorority friends.

Besides the kites I posted earlier, there are sailboats (two kinds, actually), anchors, fleur de lis, keys, elephants, angel wings and arrows, doves (the URL says seagull, but it looks like a dove and came up with all the other dove stuff), skulls, crescent moons (if it's facing the wrong way, you can always wear it backwards!), ladybugs, plus a feather that some alpha xi deltas might call a quill, and a lot of other symbols that locals or families might use or some chapters might have as unofficial symbols. For those who were searching for lamps, here you can custom order charms on different colors of silk thread, and one of the options is a genie lamp, and here you can do the same thing with a chain.

the links I posted were the first ones that came up, but usually the charms come in gold or sterling silver, and include either a matching chain (more expensive) or silk threads in different colors (I noticed for Sigma Kappas that the dove comes on a lavender thread). They also have bracelets in addition to the necklaces. I sound like a spokesperson, but I was really happy with the quality of my gold-dipped kite and I always get compliments on it from sisters. The charms are pretty dainty and subtle so I'll probably even wear mine as an alumna.
