"Owl" gifts

Hi there. I was just in Urban Outfitters and they have some intresting looking owl stuff in there, for all the Chi Omegas, Kappas and anyone else who has an owl as a symbol. Maybe something for your house or little sis for next year? Keep in mind it is Urban outfitters, so it's not the most traditional stuff...Happy Shopping!


ETA: if there isn't already a thread for this, maybe the title could be Mascot gifts instead. That way if anyone sees anything else as they are out and about, they can post it here, too. I'm not seeing how to change the thread title.

You can get some owl stuff through the Girl Guides of Canada (Brownies stuff)
http://www.girlguides.ca/media/catal...7_brownies.pdf
Jump to Page 3 of 4 for the owls.

Also, with the new Harry Potter movie coming out, I am sure that we'll see a resurgence of "Hedwig" stuff in the stores.

I was just at target to get some of those Glad tupperware containers -- and they had some very cute owl things, especially in the gardening area!

Somewhat unrelated, but one of my friends is in a new band named Hollow Owl.

I think the mascot thread idea is great! It could be for symbols too. I often see stuff in the Ross-Simons catalog and I although I personally am not in the market for a $400 diamond encrusted squirrel pin, maybe someone else is. http://www.ross-simons.com/perl/rssh...073%20PIN%204W

And it seems like I'm always seeing cute stuff for other organizations.

By any chance has anyone seen any cute kite stuff? Most of the stuff I find looks like that bloated version of a kite in the gift thread...

I agree - a Mascot/Symbol Gift thread would be a great title!

I'm forever telling Kappa friends of mine to go to Ballard Designs.com for fleur de lis and other Kappa symbols! They also have a lot of Black Diamonds, but unfortunately on rugs - NOT for a self respecting ADPi!

At one school we visited in The College Search, all the women's fraternity houses were built and decorated by the university at the same time. The layout of each house is the same. Each of the formal living rooms was beautifully decorated in the GLO's colors. Some generous benefactor had Chinese wool rugs that tastefully incorporated the sororities' symbols custom-designed for these formal living rooms. The Kappa rug had fleur-de-lis, the Theta house had black kite-shaped figures etc.

One of my BFF's is a Chi O and I found her a great B-Day card at Target with an owl on the front-- it's a cut out with fabric-- really cute. They also had one with a kite, and a few other sorority mascots. (No lions or diamonds, though-- drat!)

Her b-day is today, by the way!
