Handmade Sorority Gifts-Made 25 Years Ago

Ideas for Sorority Awards and Gifts
The following photos feature historic sorority gifts made 25 years ago for Chi Omega, Delta Zeta, Alpha Delta Pi, Phi Mu, Zeta Tau Alpha and Kappa Delta...hand-painted plaques, brown jugs, & paddle.



These sorority gift items were made in 1983. I only have pictures of the items since all of these sorority items were either special orders or were sold at the Chatter Tree craft & gift shop in Statesboro, Georgia to sorority girls from Georgia Southern College (which is now Georgia Southern University). Perhaps this blog will connect to some of the girls that actually bought or received these items as gifts. That would be so cool!

As far as I know, these were created before Greek Licensing came into being. That was back in the day when artistic ideas flourished for unique, one-of-a-kind sorority gift creations.

Perhaps, just viewing the pictures of these sorority items will inspire some of you to make something similar.

Unique Sorority Ribbon Makes Special Sorority Gifts

Suppose you could find ribbon designed with your sorority colors and letters. If you had some bright colored ribbon with your Greek letters, you could make regular gifts into special sorority gifts by tying on a ribbon bow.

You are in luck because sorority ribbon is available for sale at Greekgear. Make sorority candy jars with a sorority ribbon bow...or tie a sorority bow around a vase and fill it with a bouquet of flowers.

Sorority ribbon comes in 10 yard rolls! great for decorating that special gift, your hair or whatever your imagination can dream up. The Sorority ribbon comes in the sororities colors.

Another idea is making ribbon bracelets.
You can use velcro dots for closure OR you can use jewelry craft clasps or closures for an even nicer bracelets. The sorority ribbon would make your handmade bracelet an instant hit.

Making your own little sister gifts saves money and gives something of yourself as you put time and effort into making something special for your friend.

The following photo shows sorority candy jars with plain ribbon. The ribbon with the sorority design would make your jar especially nice.
