We give our littles:
*potted flowers-our Sorority flower of course
*decorated candy dish/plate/cup
*photo album-covered in fabric, lace and ribbons
*a bulletin/dry erase board-decorated with sorority symbols & her name
*picture frame-with the wooden bigsis & lilsis placed on it
*shot glass & stickers- pick up at your local Greek store
*decorated pillow
*a t-shirt that says Lil Sis-get a matching one for yourself that says Big Sis
*License plate holders & car decals
*a journal with your favorite poem inside
If you keep a supply of all surface paint, slick/puffy paint, and some of the wooden letters around you can create gifts year round. If you see something that you think your Lil will like, take it home and put your letters and her name on it & *poof* the perfect gift.
Another idea is to buy some fabric and cut out a large set of letters & then sew or iron it on a blanket. Why shell out up to $60 for the afghans at the Greek store? You can also do this with towels or a bedspread.
