Bigs and lils exchange paddles during Inspo week (week of initiation).

My chapter used to do plain ones, but now i'd say 85% of them are entirely painted.

I made this one for lil #1: http://i10.tinypic.com/6gx3zok.jpg
the picture is poor quality, but you can see it has a photo of us on it as well as family symbols (palm tree, family name etc).

I don't have a picture of lil #2's or the paddles they gave me.

At both my undergrad and the chapter I advised, the pledge mom/key sister (as they're now called) made it for the new member upon her initiation. I think I was in the last pledge class at my chapter to get actual "paddles," after us they started using large wooden keys.

Some people did just basic paddles -- names, year, letters, coat of arms. Some went all out with the paint, ribbon, glitter and craft glue -- especially at the chapter I advised.
