hello everyone~
since you guys gave me some great ideas, i'll share some that i've either made or *thought about* making (i'm not that artistic but sometimes i get bitten by the 'crafty bug!')
*i've bought candle votives and decorated them using glass paint. it's a bit see-thru so it has a different effect and if you mess up you can let it dry, peel it off and start again.
*i bought a magnet sheet at the rag shop, traced our letters on, cut them out and painted them.
*i bought a blank tote bag and some rose iron-on transfers as well as a blank iron-on transfer sheet and fabric paint. i may wait to see who my little is and paint her name on.
*i think stole this idea from another GC's post: buy a bottle -the one i got has a cork top- and ribbon in your sorority's colors. then tie a bunch of bows and present it as a 'wish keeper.' your little can make a wish on the bow and untie it. then when all the bows are untied, she can re-tie them and pass it on. (note: it may take a while to tie enough bows to fill the bottle/jar, but i just did it while watching tv.)
*craft stores sell gel candle kits and you can alternate colors. a nice alternative to regular candles.
call me overeager but i'm excited for recruitment!
