Gifts for big/little!

I make these a while ago, but didn't have the chance to post 'em! These two canvases were made for big/little gifts! I thought it was such a sweet idea, and since this week is BIG appreciation week for my chapter, I thought it would be perfect to post them today.

Mom's Weekend

Hey y'all! 

This past weekend was our Moms Weekend for Theta, so my mom come up to see me! She is literally an angel, and I am so glad I got to spend the weekend with her. She was feeling really sick, but she still wanted to go to every event we had. It was so much fun! We went to some fun restaurants downtown, including Sandra Bullock's BESS Bistro and the amaaazing Hopdoddy Burger Bar on South Congress.

Texas Zeta Initiation

A few weeks ago was Zeta Initiation! Two of my friends asked me to paint their crowns for their littles. It was so much fun! I love their colors, and I was so excited to help them out!

I had painted this canvas for Rachel (for her little) earlier this semester, so she wanted her little's crown to have the same sort of theme on it.

I literally love these colors together so much that I wanted to keep this one! Thank you Rachel!!

I did both of the crowns above and the bulletin board! 

Hope y'all like the stuff! Thank you Rachel and Caroline for giving me the opportunity to paint for y'all!

Keep Calm and Diamond On

As Thanksgiving break approaches I am really getting excited about some of the things I have in store! I am going to be painting some coolers for the lovely ladies my mom works with and a friend from high school! So far I think I have an A&M themed cooler, a Saints one, a Texans one, and a family themed one! I can't wait to get started on those!! They are SO much fun to do. I am also going to be painting a few canvases! This is one I did a few weeks ago, but I can't remember if I posted it or not! I love all of the Keep Calm signs. This one is for Alpha Delta Pi!

More posts soon. Homeward bound tomorrow! Can't wait to be with the fam. 

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone, and look out for some exciting posts soon!

Paddles and my awesome fam!

I am so behind on posting these!! We did our paddle reveal a few weeks back, and I am just now getting these bad boys on here. Our initiation was pretty early this year, so we did our paddles for our littles after initiation!

These were the Theta paddles I did!

 My little Grace is AWESOME! and my big Janie is the best. Okay I may be biased, but it's true! This past weekend was Fiji 80s, and we all ran into each other so naturally we had to take a picture! I don't think my face can actually handle a smile that big. So much happiness!

my big!

just the cutest!

 I also got to paint a paddle at Melissa's (the store I have an internship with) and I am so happy I got the opportunity to do so! The order was for a Texas Alpha Xi Delta, and she had drawn out exactly what she wanted. I always find it interesting to see what other sororities do for their paddles! Some are heavy with tradition while others are more crafty. I love it!! Here's the one I painted for work:

I am SO excited about the next paddle I am doing for a camp friend! Her name is Tatum, and she is an Alpha Xi Delta at Texas State!! I'm doing the Lilly pattern, so get ready, y'all!

Big/little!

So this post may be a tad bit late, but last week we had BIG LITTLE REVEAL!!! My little is awesome, and her name is Grace! Her last name sounds like "salsa", so we were chips and salsa. I thought it was pretty creative. I painted her a canvas with her monogram on it, and this year since our initiation was so early, we are doing paddles later. I want hers to look really cute! I'm doing my roomie's paddle for her little, so when I'm done with them I'll post them on here. Also, I just got an order from a DZ at Iowa State for a Lilly themed one! So cool how people from different states have seen my blog. Oh the wonders of the internet!! Also..GET READY!!! I have been painting just a few coolers for Texas/OU, and as soon as I am done I will put them up. Oh yeah I almost forgot! It's gameday, y'all. Hook 'em, horns!
