Let me see if I can get a decent pic of mine (I have one from my Little and of course the one my Big made for me when I was a NM).

I don't know if I can find a pic of it, but the one I made for my Little Sis was decorated as the "Burn Book" from Mean Girls. It was pretty much the highlight of my sorority crafting career.

I would love to see this! My chapter has never gotten into the whole paddle/boat thing for some reason so I love to see others creativity!

Here is the plaque that I made for my big. I tried to be creative with it.



In the background I painted a sailboat in silver and the pearls were supposed to be Audrey Hepburn-ish. My big was happy.

^^^ Oh, I really like how you used the pearls!! The background sailboat is also such a good idea!! Nice work!

p.s. - you have amazing handwriting for using puffy paint! Mine always come out as blobs!

When I get stressed out I paint. I decided to make my little something wooden.

sorry its blurry

Soon I will have a sword paddle made similar to this one. I can't wait.

I am going to try to find pictures from my boyfriends formal. He's a Pi Kappa Phi, and they had some pretty awesome paddles this year.

I found some non paddles that are pretty cool. I really like the creed over crest things. Maybe summer present for working?

Wow! The most I could find were dolphin shaped paddles... hahaha. I really want the creed over the crest and the membership pin one.

Thanks for posting these!

I like the creed over crest one.

When I selected AOII from the drop down, for crest is says "coming soon". Um, sorry, I don't think so!

I understand the "traditional" paddle is made of wood, would it be wrong to make it out of some other material?

I wouldn't think so. My roommate's paddle is made out of steel.

Haha, yeah, it's a Margarita glass, because I'm in the Margarita Family.

And, we have Greek Stores that will do the custom cutting for us - so its a lot easier.

Now that I've shared the one I made for my Big, I'd like to share the two I received from my amazing Littles this past year!!



Wall-E Paddle!



You can't see the bottom, but the idea behind it is that its a heart-shaped Margarita glass!
