I painted the letters silver and then when they were still wet I dipped them in silver glitter! No need for glue!

I'm a fan of the ducks (they're my family's mascot).

And Sen, the pictures showed up to me for the first time today: Those are great.

Paddles are kinda a big deal in our chapter. We exchange ALL the time and we have some amazing artists. Other chapters have come to our house and wind up taking pictures not of our house.. but our paddles. Here is one a sister made for me... They are a bit dark so I added the close ups and the back. :-) We have tons of other amazing ones but they aren't mine so I don't wanna post them.

Can't see the pictures, hun.

ETA: If you are trying to show them from facebook, you need to right-click on the photo and capture the link which ends in .jpg. Then, in GC, click on the little icon which is the mountain and the sun, then paste the link ending in .jpg.

The Fleur de lis paddle looks great and is very appropriate for Natchitoches, as well.

We are a brand new chapter (and the Nu chapter, haha!) so we've done all of our paddle and plaque exchanging at once. Some of them were so beautiful and I hope my sisters will come and post pictures here.

Everyone else made plaques for their littles, but because my little dropped, I made one for my grandlittle and one for my "niece"--as a founding mother, my charter class is matched up in "co big" pairs so that we could all have the big/little week experience with each other (I think other sororities sometimes call this twins?) and thus my "co big's" little is my niece.



Here is the paddle I made for my big
