Go to the website and log in, then go to the GFB Members section and then go to SHOP GFB -- check it out!

I love our stuff! Wait till you see the alum chapter's boutique at Convention

It's not official Greek stuff but so many of their items are decorated with the symbols--like pink socks with green turtles, tons of ladybug items, items with angels, crescent moons, lilies of the valley, irises,roses,dolphins, you name it!

I used to get Nature's Jewelry catalogues when I was 17 until I was about 19 or 20. Sometimes I would order some stuff there. I haven't heard from them in years and I thought that they went out of business. I was wrong!!! I saw their website and they have such awesome stuff there. The items are so gorgeous.

Member, they help us, we sholuld help them!

I do not own stock in the company!

The problem with the vendor in the ad is that they are not licensed (i'm guessing they get away with it because they don't market things for individual sororities, they just make the things with whatever you want on them), and therefore our national organizations to not get any money from them (in terms of licensing fees, etc.)

As a guy, yep, I do most of my things by mailings. Hard to find fitted items off of the rack.

I buy all of my clothes from Haband for guys hard to fit. Prices are nice too. Nick nack stuff for my House samething or something else from Signature.

But the only problem is, that you once buy from one, you get mailings from a pot full!

Ha, some are even the same company, but different name!

Okay, I didn't techically see these in a catalog, but I found two things that were TriDelta friendly, from Cash's of Ireland (1-800-223-8100)

Dolphin Sweater

Wedgewood Dolphin Cuff Links

Our former next door neighbor is a TriDelta, and has the sweater - it's really sharp!

And for my ADPi sisters (and TriSigmas): Wild Violet Tea Set for One

I have other pieces of this set, it includes the teapot, and is very lovely!

Anybody know where you can find Raggedy Ann stuff that isn't too country? (OPhiA is officially affiliated with GreekShop.com, where they have a special section for us, but I really just hate the products they have designed ...).

Ren,
That's going to be hard to find Ophia (Raggedy Ann) stuff that doesn't look country.

I'm getting ready to PM you.

Check www.anchortrader.com
Their doll is called Hannah.

Is Greekshop.com using Raggedy Ann as affiliated with a sorority? I thought Annie's corporate parents gave the thumbs down on that.

CarolinaDG · #27 12-31-2005, 09:21 PM

I would think that there wouldn't be a problem with that, since Anchor trader lists our Hannah dolls as "Raggedy Ann"

Although, interesting since Raggedy Ann is a historically incorrect Hannah doll.

I'll bite - what's the difference?

OK, DG's can correct me if I'm just pulling this out of my butt, but when they first created "Hannah" she was just a little girl doll. For some reason, it converted to Raggedy Ann through the years. I believe, even, that she was blonde at first. Once again, the DG's can correct me if I'm wrong...

*Going to surf the deltagamma.org website for verification*
