It's Almost the Holiday Season! Alpha Ep Gifts we want to get/give/make....
 
In this thread, we share gorgeous Alpha Ep gifts we are getting or making people for the Holiday Season... or things you want!


Feel free to include initiation gifts on here. :) It's coming up for many chapters soon.

--------------------------------
I got a $10 coupon for Marilyn's Keepsakes and just got my (biological) sister a gorgeous gift for Christmas:

I found this brooch on our HJ site and it is beautiful! I don't know how often I would wear it now, but I love it.

It's a carnation, so I think it's more for membership educators or candidates, but it's beautiful!


Also from HJ Greek: Whimsical Dolphin Necklace (I am asking for this one for sure!)

$40

White Rose Pillow Sham, $25

We bought this for her. We are trying to see if we can add the letters in a way that doesn't look tacky! Any suggestions?

AOEforme 11-20-2010 04:58 PM

You could perhaps get iron on letters?

This is actually what her big ended up doing. She picked a bright royal blue and did a curvy font. I'll try and get a photo of it. Her little loved it!

Have you guys looked at Etsy for gifts? It's fabulous! Just type in "sorority".

OHNOITSJESS 12-08-2010 04:09 PM

that sounds so cute :) i'm in the merch committee so i'm excited to see all these ideas.

Rubberduckie 12-12-2010 09:46 PM

I got this for my big for christmas:

It's vera bradley but the color scheme is sorority-like and I love the big "rose" on it. The way the flower is designed reminds me of part of the ritual behind sister initiation and the rays on the crest. :) I hope she likes it!

AOEforme 12-12-2010 10:48 PM

I think she will.

OHNOITSJESS 12-14-2010 11:51 AM

It's probably one of those random things they throw in for all the soroities. :rolleyes:

I sent the boy the link for the HG Greek site, in case he hadn't bought anything yet. *fingers crossed for the ring*

I got this laptop case from Vera Bradley from Christmas, but my sister embroidered it with our letters in a swirly silver font down the side. It is really gorgeous.
