Alpha Delta Pi Candy Tin

These ADPi candy tins are easy to make and they make a great gift for your little sister.

Materials needed:

1. Any suitable container such as a nut container shown in picture.
2. Scrapbook paper of your choice. I used blue since it is an ADPi color.
3. A large sticker (from scrapbook store) of sorority mascot or sorority symbol or flower.
4. Paint pen to paint Greek letters on lid of container.

Tools:

1. scissors to cut paper
2. Glue stick to glue paper on container.

-Making the sorority candy container shown above is super quick and easy once you have the supplies since you don't have to draw of paint anything but the Greek letters on the top.
Another idea is a sorority candy jar but it takes a little more time and effort if it the design is hand drawn and colored with colored pencils.

• I used a regular jar from my kitchen.
• I traced the lid onto drawing paper and cut out a circle that could be glued to the lid.
• I drew a teddy bear for Kappa Delta on the circle.
• After gluing the circle on the lid, I tied a matching bow around the jar. The bow really adds a lot to the gift.

When I make a gift for a specific person, I like to make a gift tag from cardstock, punch a hole in the corner and use narrow ribbon to tie the tag to the gift. On the tag you can personalize as you wish...consider using a sorority quote from our Quotes Page.

MAKE YOUR OWN MESSAGE BOARD:

If you want to make your own, pick up a message board at Walmart (you might not be able to find one with a blue border-I don't know....) . Then go to Hobby Lobby or Michaels for a wooden lion cu- out and magnets. I have seen the lion cut-outs that are already painted. You only have to add Greek letters. The image above shows shiny bling. If that is the look you want, just look for that at the craft store, too.

A great gift that is easy to make!

ADPi Sorority Gift Candy Tin

Make an easy little sister/big sister gift

with scrapbooking paper, a lion sticker, and a snack or nut container. Perfect handmade gift for Alpha Delta Pi or any sorority.

You will need:

1.  A clean snack container with lid

2.  2 sheets of scrapbook paper in your sorority color(s)

3.  glue stick

4.  A mascot sticker or other

(can substitute with a mascot design you make yourself on acid free paper)

5. scissors.

All you have to do is:

1. Cut the scrapbook paper to fit the container.  It will take two pieces since the scrapbook paper is not wide enough to go around the whole container.

2. Glue the two pieces onto the container, overlapping to fit.

3. Press the sticker  in the center (or cut out your mascot design & glue in the center)

Basically, that is it!  If you have paint pens, you can mark your Greek Letters on the lid.

This ideas makes a great little or big sister gift, if you enjoy giving a lot of surprises.

Making your own sorority gifts makes them extra special.

Happy crafting!
