Sigma Kappa Sorority Paddle


Sorority Paddle, originally uploaded by Rachel René.

Sorority Paddles are still around though some frown upon them. Since they are for decorative and gift purposes only, I don't see why any should object.

Anyway, isn't this a beautifully decorated ? The sorority sister that made this, designed it around the theme, "Painting the Roses Red" Since Sigma Kappa's symbols are hearts and doves along with maroon and lavender as its colors, the design features all came together in the theme based paddle. She commented, "The paddle was very hard to take pictures of as I coated it in glitter and it was late afternoon but I think this picture turned out alright. :)"

I love the paintbrush full of red paint.....what a great touch? The 3D dove and rose at the top really set it all off.

Thanks to Rachel Rene for her Flickr picture of this Sigma Kappa paddle.

Sorority Mascot Cutouts-Delta Gamma Anchor

Delta Gamma Anchor


I have found the cutouts pictured here in an eBay shop called the Texas Art Craft Store. They have a wide selection of wooden cutouts. Type your mascot in the store search box to locate the cut outs you need.

There are also wooden cutouts available at craft stores like Hobby Lobby and Michaels, however, the selection is limited. The craft stores usually offers turtles, frogs, ladybugs, lions, butterflies, and some of the other mascots. The neat thing about these cutouts is they are prepainted and they are really cute. If you haven't seen them yet, see if you can find them the next time you are in a large craft store like the ones mentioned above.

Use acrylic paints and a quality art paint brush to color the wooden cutouts. Then you can use them for any number of gift ideas!....


Phi Mu Lion or Alpha Delta Pi Lion

Paint a bunch of your wooden mascots to make gift tags that will be treasured and saved. They also make very special Christmas ornaments to represent your sorority. It is easy to glue both ends of a loop of ribbon to the cutout to make a pretty way to hand it up.


Alpha Epsilon Phi Giraffes

Glue your handpainted mascot cutout on the front of a scrapbook to make a custom designed scrapbook. You can also decorate a journal or any notebook to make it represent your sorority.


Delta Delta Delta Dolphins


Chi Omega Owl


Concerning Texas Art Craft Store on eBay:
These are so inexpensive and fun to decorate that you will enjoy thinking of friends to give them to.

Buy them in quantity to save money when you need to make more than one gift. They come in different sizes from small to large so you can choose according to your needs.
