How to Personalize a Delta Phi Epsilon Unicorn for Your Sorority

DIRECTIONS for personalizing a plush mascot:

Here is an easy way to make a stuffed animal such as this unicorn into a very special representative of your sorority, in this case, Delta Phi Epsilon . Make a sorority necklace with a ribbon chain and a charm from a foam star.
Simply.....

1. On the foam star, paint Greek letters
2. Next, punch a hole with a hole puncher
3. Thread the narrow ribbon through the hole you just punched
4. Tie ribbon around your mascot to make a necklace
5. Add a pretty bow
That's it!

Sorority Christmas Ornaments - Phi Mu, Alpha Delta Pi Lion

Make this simple lion Christmas ornament for your sorority sisters!

Materials needed:

Pre-painted wooden lion (or other sorority mascot)
A small wooden shape from a pack of Woodsies
Your sorority colors in acrylic paint
10 inches of matching ribbon
Elmers glue

Michaels and Hobby Lobby carry many wooden cutouts for about fifty cents each (less when they are on sale). Some of the cutouts that are available are gators, frogs, lions (above), crowns, bears, ladybugs, butterflies, etc. Likewise, Woodsies which are small wooden shapes are sold at craft stores.

Quick & easy directions for sorority ornament:

1. Paint a woodsie shape with your main sorority color (as blue & pink above)

2. When paint dries, carefully paint your Greek Letters on the woodsie shape (as white above)

3. When paint dries, glue shape wherever you like on your lion

4. When glue dries, turn ornament over and attach ends of ribbon to ornament with glue. I put a heavy glob of glue about 1/8" diameter. Adhere the ribbon ends in the blob of glue and let the glue globs dry for a 1/2 hour or so. (The glue dries clear)


Christmas is months away, but in order to enjoy the holidays, plan and make your Christmas gifts early this year. Making gifts for your sorority sisters is fun and easy.

For Kappa Deltas with frog mascot.....
Get out your acrylic paints and try painting frogs on any Kappa Delta gift that you want to make special.

DIRECTIONS:
1. On paper, make a simple penciled drawing of a frog.
2. Use green, white, and black acrylic paints to color your frog.
3. Once you have the "feel" of painting with acrylics, go through the same process of sketching and then painting on a fabric surface like this makeup bag and mirror.

Kappa Delta Handpainted Frog-GA Southern & Newberry

So you want ideas for little sister, big sister gifts?

Start painting.

You can make anything special with a little paint. I painted a frog on the top of this paper mache box. If you stop by any craft store, you will find many items that you can buy, and then custom paint with your mascot such as this frog for Kappa Deltas at Georgia Southern U or Newberry.

Also, painting on a canvas tote is not hard. Acrylic paints are great for painting on fabrics. See the handpainted KD frog totebag or the KD hang pillow.

Hand Painted Kappa Delta Frog Tote Bag

This Kappa Delta canvas tote bag is made for Georgia Southern KD's and any other KD whose chapter mascot is the frog.

For those who like to make their own, the design is painted with acrylic paint. This is a fun painting project that will make a special sister gift.

Kappa Delta Frog Hang Pillow

It has been my pleasure to find many Kappa Deltas who love their chapter's frog mascot. The mother of a Kappa Delta asked me to make a KD frog hang pillow for her daughter. This is the handmade pillow that resulted. You can special order sorority hang pillows by emailing me.

Kappa Delta - any Georgia Southern KD girls? Newberry College? Susquehanna University?

Most Kappa Delta sorority sisters are looking for teddy bears, but there are quite a few who are thoroughly devoted to their local mascot, the frog. There are the Kappa Deltas at Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, GA and of course, the Kappa Deltas at Newberry in SC. Then there is the Kappa Delta chapter from Susquehanna University in Selinsgrove, PA and the Alpha chapter at Longwood University. (If there are any others, please leave a comment with this post so that yours will be recognized, also.)

All of these items are handmade. The frogs are painted on items with acrylic paint to make them special KD gifts. The KD greeting card is made with a blank card and letters cut out of green & white gingham acid free scrapbooking paper. Making special cards is easy and makes a great Kappa Delta gift for a little or big. Tie a ribbon around a stack of handmade cards, topped with a bow, and you will have a lovely gift package!

I used to live in South Georgia and I made these types of gift items for the Kappa Deltas, Delta Zetas, Phi Mus, ADII's, ZTA's, and Chi O's at Georgia Southern.
