Pink and Green

"Ladies look pretty in pink, but they need a little green to be gorgeous!"

The Delta Zeta polka dotted sticker claims the collection for Dee Zee,

but the colors are there for AKA sorority girls to enjoy, also.

This caught my eye at Polyvore.

Dee Zee Girls look pretty in pink

but look gorgeous is pink with lime green.

The colors are just made to go together!

Sorority Paddles

-A Sorority Paddle is an historic reminder of special Greek relationships.  If it is the custom of your chapter to give paddles, then you might want to make your own. You can buy a blank wooden paddle and wooden Greek letters to represent your sorority and make a creative symbol of that special bond. Click to see a beautiful custom designed sorority paddle.   OR

You can have your paddle custom made like the one shown above.  Choose your colors and Greek letters and decide on distinguishing characteristics to make your paddle original.

Greek Gear offers special order Greek Paddles for less than $40.  They measure a hefty 21" x 4" and come in vibrant colors as you can see from the pictures on this post.

If you need to find a paddle that is less expensive, Greek Gear also has a paddle that might work.  This paddle has a classic look since it is a basic unpainted wooden paddle with simple but elegant Greek letters and it's sorority crest.  The discount paddle measures  at 22" x 3.5"

AKA Frog Ornaments

Alpha Kappa Alpha Frog Ornament

Tis the season to be jolly..
These little AKA pink and green frog ornaments are full of jolly.  Liven up your own tree or give them away as Christmas gifts to your sorority sisters.

Use this idea and make your own sorority Christmas ornaments.

• Look for 3 wooden cut-outs of your mascot such as the frog in this example.  You will also need 3 Woodsies.
• I used the round shaped woodsies for this example.
• I painted the woodsie pink and when it dried, I used a Sharpie permanent markers to write the letters.
• This wooden circle (woodsie) was glued to the wooden frog.
• I cut a length or narrow pink ribbon and attached it to the wooden frog this way: With Elmer's Glue I made 2 little globs of glue on the back of the frog and put the ends of the ribbon in the glue.  Then I added another small drop of blue on top of the ribbon end. I allowed it to dry thoroughly (takes and hour or two).

That's it. Ready to hang on the tree!
