Pins
 

Hey ladies! I thought we could start a "What does your pin look like" thread. So what does your pin (or pins!) look like, and if you were to ever get a new one, which one would you want?

I have the plain yellow gold one from initiation. (Before the chased borders ones came out.) In my chapter, everyone got the same pin, it was included in our dues. Some legacies were initiated with their mom's/sister's/grandma's pins, and some of them kept those to wear all the time.

If I could have any pin, I would get this one!

That is the pin I got for Christmas!!!! Except mine is silver, not gold :). I love, love, love it and it wasn't too terribly expensive. I just wish I had more opportunities to wear it :)

aot,

i also have the standard chased edge gold pin that we get from initiaton. when i graduate, i really want to get either the pin with alternating diamonds or emeralds OR the amazingly gorgeous diamond shaped diamond necklace!

its very expensive, but so beautiful!

I bought this pin off of ebay a few years ago....

If I had to buy a new one, i'd want a white gold one like shadykd posted... much more my taste. At the time I bought this one I wore gold, now I really only wear gold if i'm wearing my pin (which is a shame b/c I have so much gold jewelery, I should start to wear it more!).

I have my "plain" pin with the chased border from initiation (standard for our chapter). I did get the emerald/diamond one which Shaedy posted for Christmas this year, though mine is in gold.

Mine looks similar to the one at the top but instead of diamons it has pearls in the corners. It is also the white gold and not the yellow gold.

my pin is white gold... cause I don't were yellow gold often. it is around the edges. I rescued it from EBAY... its cool and a peice of history... it makes me feel connected to the orginal sister that owned it. I also go the ring to mount it on... I want to get the necklace... but I hate parting with my pin.
I couldn't find online that looks like it

I just got the standard gold chased border one...though I think when I get another one (maybe next semester or next year!) I'll probably get the silver one with pearls and emerald corners. I like it the best.

One of the more senior members of my chapter has this really pretty necklace...It's a diamond made of out rhinestones, and in the center it has the kappa delta letters, also made of rhinestones. Has anyone seen anything like that before? It's not on the masters of design website...

that sounds really cool... if you find out where she got it pm me...
Yeah for Kappa delta pride:)

I found out where she got the necklace! It's actually a pretty cool story so I just thought I'd share it on here.
I guess two of our girls went to convention last summer and were pages helping out during convention, and the necklaces were given to them as gifts! They're really lovely, I'll try to see if one of the girls will let me take a picture of it or something.

Right now, the sister's pin that I'm using is the design where the emerald and pearls alternate..it's much prettier than what I saw from the order sheet.

I plan on ordering the emerald one that Shaedy posted....after looking at all of them, that is definitely my favorite. I don't remember if they have one that is all emeralds, but that would be my top choice!

Interesting note--in the last 10 days, I've had the opportunity to meet two national officers, both who sported the design of the original badge. It is absolutely beautiful in its simplicity--a silver and green badge.

Interesting, I've never seen the original badge before. Does anyone know where I can find a picture?

See if your chapter has a copy of Ordinary Miracles--this is a book about the history of Kappa Delta and her chapters. There is a picture in there.

The original Kappa Delta pin. It was silver with green enamel. Only the first 12 or so Kappa Deltas had this type.
