Need KKG opinions/help!

nmgirl98 · #1 10-27-2003, 12:05 AM

My mother was just honored as a 50 year KKG. She graduated from Bucknell U - don't know the chapter name.

I'm trying to find something very unique as a congratulations for her. I'm a Chi O so I'm at a loss of what to get her!

Any help any of you could give me would be great.

Thanks!

That's so awesome!

I loved seeing the fifty year Kappas honored at our Founder's Day celebration.

I don't really have any great suggestions, other than maybe an engraved piece of jewelry in the shape of an iris or fleur de lis to commemorate it.

I'm not a KKG but my two aunts were at LSU. Anyway, go to
www.mignonfaget.com. This is the site a New Orleans Jewlery Designer. She has some fleur de lis rings and items that are so awesome. Both of my aunts have the fleur de lis rings.

Ooooo...and Mignon Faget is a Chi Omega!

Well, I don't think Mignon made the rings and things for KKG....I mean the Fleur De Lis is a symbol that is widely used in New Orleans...the New Orleans Saints use it, it is used all over in architecture.....but yes Mignon was a Chi Omega and she is awesome designer as well.

Yes, I understand that -- I just thought I'd mention that she is a Chi Omega alumna (since the original poster of this thread is a Chi Omega and wants to purchase something for her Kappa Kappa Gamma mama.)

fun times....then she needs to buy something from Mignon Faget! Great jewlery! I have over 25 pieces! It is big thing in New Orleans to wear Mignon!
