It's Almost the Holiday Season! Alpha Ep Gifts we want to get/give/make....

[AOEforme]

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!)

LOVE this.

Some cute things I found at Target, while shopping for Initiation gifts for our family's newest member....

Heart and Dolphin Necklace: Target, $20


White Rose Porcelain Serving Set, $40


Double Dolphin Studs: Target, $25


Three Dolphins (which I love because it is like a parallel on the three rings)

$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?

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]

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

[Rubberduckie]

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]

I think she will.

I LOVE the new stuff on the HJ site







IDK why we have this one on our site tho.... any ideas?

it would be so cute if it were 3 stars, paralleling the 3 rings

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

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.
