I'm not sure what you mean by heirlooms, but here are some ideas that I either got one of my littles or got from my big or saw other people give/get...some hand made, some "store bought"

-Glass or silver box for badge
-Lap/Study board
-Bulletin or Wipe-Erase Board (Painted on or done with hot glue gun & ribbon)
-Picture Frames
-Trash Cans (sounds odd, but this was BIG in my chapter back in the day...those cheapo white plastic $2 trash cans...painted on with paint pens)
-Wreaths (ribbon...wooden letters)
-Photo Albums (easy to make fabric covered ones)
-Cups
-Stickers
-My mother made everyone in my family quilted sailboat throw pillows
-Sailboat Necklace
-Lavelier (sp?)
-You could make your lil a CD with songs that are significant to your chapter or your relationship with her
-Framed poems
-Pillow case
-Sailboats....crystal, wooden, glass, brass, candles, whatever!
-Stationery...with sailboats, violets, etc.
-Skull & crossbones stuff (purchased at Halloween it's easier to find!)
-I have this random wooden jewelry-type box that has wooden letters on it that is one of my favorite things to this day!
-There's always letters in your family print (if ya'll have families yet!)
-Flip flops

Does that help any? Or is it just too much information?
