pandora charms/beads?

[thetababe18]

Hi everyone! I recently joined Kappa Alpha Theta and have been wanting to get something on my pandora bracelet to represent my new sorority. I've looked on the actual pandora site and they don't sell greek letters or any symbols related to KAΘ. Does anyone know of a place I could get a kite or pansy charm or even better the greek letter for theta (Θ)? Thanks!

Www.collegejewelry.com They sell sorority and college beads that are licensed and compatible with Pandora bracelets. I think HJ GREEK might also offer a bead with letters for European style charm bracelets.

They have a pretty sorority Fenton glass beads, too!

If you've just joined Theta, and you're still a new member, note that Theta is one of two NPC sororities that does not allow new members to wear letters. The other is my sorority. I believe there may be one or two other NPC sororities that don't allow anyone who isn't an initiated sister to wear letters, but Theta and AEPhi are the two of which I am certain.

That said, I ordered my first AEPhi letters while still a new member. I was in a local sorority that became a chapter of AEPhi, and there was nothing stopping me from ordering the letter sweatshirt - I just couldn't wear it until I was initiated. (And, believe me, I couldn't wait to change clothes post-initiation! )

If you find a kite or pansy charm, go for it. If you find a Greek letter Theta charm, I'd suggest you go ahead and buy it, but not wear it until after initiation - but I will defer to actual Theta sisters on this point.

artbeads.com sells 5.6 mm sterling greek letter beads, with a 4 mm hole which I believe will fit a Pandora bracelet.

You can find pewter greek letter beads on ebay (occasionally there's sterling listed), and you can also check etsy.

aephi alum is correct - you need to wait until after you're initiated to wear our letters, coat of arms, or other Fraternity insignia.

And there are >400 licensed merchandise vendors listed on the website. Have fun!

I'm pretty sure Pi Phi falls into that category as well. At least they did "back in the day".

Here is the bracelet given to NPC Chair, Jean Mrasek.

These beads are from Collegiate Bead Co. and are each 2 color enamel, meaning for example, the Theta bead is gold on one side, black on the other.

What happens for groups with 3 official colors?

The jeweler picked two.
