Went and searched for this the other day because I remembered there were some great finds, and thought I'd revive it with some additions.
I've found some great charms at dogeared.com for so many sorority friends.
Besides the kites I posted earlier, there are
sailboats (
two kinds, actually),
anchors,
fleur de lis,
keys,
elephants,
angel wings and
arrows,
doves (the URL says seagull, but it looks like a dove and came up with all the other dove stuff),
skulls,
crescent moons (if it's facing the wrong way, you can always wear it backwards!),
ladybugs, plus a feather that some alpha xi deltas might call a quill, and a lot of other symbols that locals or families might use or some chapters might have as unofficial symbols. For those who were searching for lamps,
here you can custom order charms on different colors of silk thread, and one of the options is a genie lamp, and
here you can do the same thing with a chain.
the links I posted were the first ones that came up, but usually the charms come in gold or sterling silver, and include either a matching chain (more expensive) or silk threads in different colors (I noticed for Sigma Kappas that the dove comes on a lavender thread). They also have bracelets in addition to the necklaces. I sound like a spokesperson, but I was really happy with the quality of my gold-dipped kite and I always get compliments on it from sisters. The charms are pretty dainty and subtle so I'll probably even wear mine as an alumna.
