I can tell you the stuff I have 28 years later - my paddle, my teddy bear and my pin holder, a little A Xi D pillow. None of those things are fancy, or particularly expensive but the paddle was hand painted, is simple with pretty much only a pink rose on it. The teddy bear is a Gund light beige normal teddy bear (it used to have light blue and yellow ribbon around its neck), and the pillow has meant I never had to figure out where my quill was in all that time and about a gazillion moves. I guess the common thread is they're timeless.
If I were to buy gifts for an 18 year old sister today (and I could afford it), I'd probably buy a letter sweatshirt, a fun frame with a picture of both of us, and/or something hand made, maybe a little cross-stitch. And then at initiation I'd give her a quill pillow or box.
